8:00 am: Early morning photos are up box #1 and you can see the surf is larger. Much larger surf than it has been. It started rapidly increasing yesterday morning and continued all day and into the night and is even larger today, than yesterday evening when it was at it’s largest for the day then. Still fairly mixed up and lumpy/bumpy but for the strong paddling surfer how can make it to the outside, there are some big drop ins with some waves over head high for sure. Breaking on the outside at the higher tide, you know there is plenty of ummph behind the swell. Onshore winds all day today so no real clean up. Some spots could have some really fun waves today, if you do not mind the super hard paddle out….

1:00 pm: It’s still looking blustery out there with strong onshore winds and a lot of chop. There’s definitely a lot of size out there and there may be some diamonds in the rough, especially on the outside. The waves are looking to be in the 3 to 4 foot range withs some bombs on the outside. We have a low tide at 1:10 this afternoon, again with some overhead waves out there. Overall, there is a lot of size and power out there if you don’t mind dealing with the choppy conditions. You can check out all new photos from today in box #2 + check out our new You Tube surf report – should we make this a new feature?

Dean’s Surf Station Forecast just updated… a strong/prolonged onshore flow over the weekend will combine with an open ocean low east of the Bahamas to build a SIGNIFICANT SIZE COMBO SWELL that will linger well into next week with warmer weather and finally lighter wind Tuesday/Wednesday. Here is a good link to accurately track real-time, near-shore surf temperatures off the NE Florida coast: the Fernandina Beach buoy. Located upstream (to the north) and closer to the coast than the St. Augustine buoy, it’s a good indicator of fluctuations in NE Florida surf temps influenced by northerly wind cold air outbreaks. Here is an overview of a large-scale, real-time wind map to track the shifting winds associated with the fronts and lows that produce our waves.
