8:00 am: Early morning photos are up box #1 and you can see we have not large surf, but surf. Bumpy and choppy waves at knee to thigh high with an occasional larger peak is the call. Mixed up and disorganized with the sideonshore winds. Starting the day is the Florida Boardriders are out back with a surf contest, and that is what you see in the photographs…

11:45 am: It’s still cool on the sand, but our Florida Boardriders competitors are making the best out of the blustery conditions. The waves are in the thigh to waist high range with just okay form. Those onshore winds are adding a fair amount of texture, with angled swell from the N. Overall, the waves are looking to be in the 1.5 to 2.5 range with messy conditions. We have a high tide coming up at 12:20 this early afternoon, so there may be enough swell on the buoy to start breaking on the outside once that tide begins to back out. It may not be great conditions but there are waves to be had.You check out new photos in box #2.

3:35 pm: New photos are up box #3 with a few from this morning and most from this afternoon, taken at the Florida Board Riders Florida Cup surf event held @ St. Augustine Beach around 2nd Street. Some ripping going on! Waved around 2-3 feet and the chop was not too bad. A fun day of surfing for sure….

Dean’s updated Surf Station Forecast calls for a modest uptick leading into the weekend behind the latest cold front passage. The first half of next week will see a nice warming trend ahead of another front mid-week, followed by an increasing onshore flow and a significant increase in combo swell into Friday the 13th. Here is a good link to accurately track real-time, near-shore surf temperatures off the NE Florida coast… the Fernandina Beach buoy is climbing up now after briefly bottoming out at 63.5F mid-week. Located upstream (to the north) much closer to the coast than the St. Augustine buoy, it’s a good indicator for dropping and rising surf temps dictated by winter cold air outbreaks followed by warming trends. 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.
