Surf Report comments:

Reporter: T. Strange

7:35 am: The weather is yet colder at the beach early this morning. Finally super clear skies with waves @ 6 inches to 1 foot. It’s semi-glassy with chilly WNW winds @ 8-10 knots. The marine forecast is calling for the wind to be NW @ 5-10 knots. On the local buoy the early morning wave height reading is 3.3 feet at 6 seconds down in size from yesterdays 4.6 feet at 5 seconds. The water temperature is measured at 63 degrees at The Pier this morning. View The Surf Station Cam Page here. The morning photos up next….

8:20 am: Early morning photos are up and posted in box #1 and you can see the waves are quite small and breaking on the far inside. Angled N swell peaks and lines pushing down the beach from north to south. Super bright sunshine! Hopefully it will warm up this cold day….

1:00 pm: New afternoon photos are up and posted in box #2 and you can see we have a small scale north swell trickling in. The local buoy is showing a small north swell , and along the beach you can see it…. it’s just very small overall…. Shin to knee high or so. Possibly a thigh high peak, but when you go down the line, it’s more like shin to knee high. It’s ridable , for sure., although if you ride too far, yer fin is gonna drag bottom : )

5:30 pm: Evening Note: Super small surf just before dark. Here is a short video of the action from the pier…..

Now that Black Friday is over… and while we wait for the Surf Station’s original 12 Days of Christmas Specials….. here is a special to hold you over: For a limited time we are offering our Surf Station apparel at 25% off! See the collection here: Surf Station goods! Use coupon code SS25 to get the price break : )

Click.on the link, then zoom out to see wind speed/direction and the fetch that generates our waves. Here is the weekly weather forecast for St.Augustine Beach, and the 5-day NWS Marine Forecast for Northeast Florida coastal waters. Dean’s Surf Forecast reflects on the cold weather and clean leftover swell to start the work week, with a look ahead to an uptick late week into next weekend,
