The wind is N at 21-24 knots with the marine forecast calling for the wind to increase NE today . Our local buoy is currently reading 8.2 feet at 8 seconds way up from yesterdays 1.6 feet at 12 seconds, See it live with this view from the north side of the pier.

Reporter: Big Dave
11:15 am: Bigger and windier waves on tap for midday. Surf is in the thigh to chest high range with peaks up to shoulder high. Our local buoy is running 8.2 ft @ 7 seconds out of the NNE. Local winds are howling at 25-27 knots out of the N. it would be a battle with mother nature, but there are some ridable waves out there for midday. Conditions are not likely to improve before the end of today. Tomorrow morning is looking like the best time to get some larger surf with clean-ish conditions.

Here is the overview wind map, and here is the Windi Map centered on St. Augustine. Click on the link, then zoom out to see wind speed/direction and the fetch that produces waves. Dean’s Surf Forecast calls for a stout nor’easter to build surf through the second half of the work week, followed by a cold hard offshore wind backing NW over the weekend with plenty of lingering swell.
