Nothing now...maybe weekend?

That front that came through last night didn't do much for the waves. There's a small wave, but nothing really...

Later in the week another system will come through. Depends on the wind on the backside of this front... There will be waves- but will it be clean in LI or NJ or both? Time will tell.

Stay tuned.

This week's forecast

A cold front will pass by on Tuesday. It may have a rideable windswell on the backside, but the models aren't calling for much. Keep an eye on the buoy.

Later in the week, looks like a solid swell shaping up for Saturday. We'll see.

Beach Day in April

Nice warm beach weekend in April. Considering I saw snow flakes less than a week ago, I won't complain about the lack of swell.

There's a little bump, and it's warm. Go to the beach, have a bbq, whatever.

Oh well

Went to check it early- wind was starting to come up. Swell wasn't hitting at my old high tide spot, either.

Maybe you fared better than me?

Wind dies...morning session?

Well, the wind really died off this afternoon. I am guessing a few lucky folks got out there in time for the 'glass' off. I'm sure it never got all that clean, but it was probably pretty fun.

Wind is forecast to be light overnight, and into tomorrow. I'd imagine there could be some fun waves to be had tomorrow...as long as the wind stays as forecast.

Check it if ya can...

Wind and Rain

A whole slew of fronts will track across the region over the next few days. This will create a bunch of wind and waves- but not looking too good for a cleanup. I'm hoping something will change in the forecasts. I don't know about you, but I still think it's damn cold to be surfing VAS condintions...

I'll post some more as we get more into the peak of the swell- Tuesday-ish.

Go get some!

Looking pretty good out there this morning. Solid ESE swell, with light northerly winds. Low Tide at 7:30...incoming all morning. Should be pretty good all day- as long as the winds cooperate.

Tomorrow will have some fun leftovers, I think.

It's sunny, warm(er), and there's waves. Go hit it!

(It might be glassy enough down in nj, too)

The Build

A low will pass south of LI later today, and will start to generate some East swell for us. Looking like this swell could last Weds-Friday. The question will be what the winds will do. As of now, the NWS is calling for hard East then NE winds for the next few days, switching west on Friday. I'd be pretty surprised if we didn't get some favorable wind/swell conditions outta this event. Keep an eye on flags/wind forecasts. \
NJ should be pretty blown out on this one, until maybe a small cleanup day on Friday

Sorry for the lack of updates

Hello loyal tubespit readers.

I was out of the country for the past week or so, hence the lack of updates. I was somewhere down south checking out greener pastures...

Back to the waves-

Looking pretty weak for the upcoming week. The next chance for waves is about 6 or 7 days out with perhaps some E/NE type stuff. Too early to see how this will pan out, though.
