Possible Coastal Storm Developing Off The Mid Atlantic Next 24-48 Hours.

Posted on May 17, 2012 by Da Buh

We’ve been keeping a close eye on the satellite loops since early this morning. There are some indications that we are in the early stages of Coastal Storm setting up off the OBX. This is something we will watch in real time. Exact strength and position could be the difference between small or large surf coming. It’s a big unknown at the moment as models are not in agreement and remain fickle.

Here We Grow Again

Posted on May 13, 2012 by Da Buh

Morning Everyone,

Would like to start off with a BIG HEARTFELT THANK YOU to those who have donated $$ towards this website over the last several days. It is greatly appreciated so thank you. If you haven’t made a donation please consider making one. We could really use your help right now. There’s an old saying in life that goes never forget where you come from and we promise you, you will not be forgotten.

We are currently in the process of adding a group of professional photographers from around the state. This addition will ultimately bring you updated surf conditions on a daily basis so you can know before you go. This group of professional photographers in principal have agreed to donate their time for the time being in an effort to help grow this website. But they too will also need financial support in the future to support their efforts. We plan to achieve this by sponsorship from local businesses located in their region on their own page. If you are a business owner, don’t miss out on a great opportunity to get involved at the ground level of a fast and growing website. Visitors to this site are increasing daily. We anticipate seeing exponential growth in the number of daily visitors with the addition of this staff. If you’re a business owner and are interested in reaching a wider audience that will allow you to offer your goods or services, contact us. We will be happy to discuss how we can help you create new customers and keep your existing ones. Please visit our media and testimonial page to learn more about Dabuh.

On with the forecast:

Models Hinting at First 2012 Tropical Storm of the Season

Posted on May 10, 2012 by Da Buh

We normally don’t put much stock in the extended forecast models. However monitoring the back to back runs of the extended GFS and noting a few others, there is a strong indication that we may see our first Tropical Storm/Hurricane of the 2012 Season around the 20th of this month. Looking at the historical record and what the models are indicating this is a possibility as the Earliest Cat 3 Hurricane was Hurricane Able, Back in May 1951, off the Florida East Coast.

SURF ALERT Larger Surf Forecast This Weekend

Posted on May 8, 2012 by Da Buh

PLEASE READ AND CONSIDER A PERSONAL NOTE AT THE END OF TODAY’S UPDATE

Morning everyone, looks like the call for SURF ALERT conditions in our last update has started this morning for NE Florida and should work it’s way down the Coast throughout the day. Local legend Terry Deloach was reporting early, Jax Bch Pier, waist to chest and glassy and Narley Charlie was calling Smyrna 3-5 with full on SURF ALERT conditions. Swell looks to hold into the waist plus range until Thursday before ramping up over the weekend with the possibility of seas reaching small craft advisories and Double Digit status in the offshore waters by Saturday. Very active outlook setting up so here goes.

Here’s a live look at this mornings IR Sat image. Low pressure over the N Central U.S. will move East dragging the next front East along with it with Low pressure over N Central Texas sliding up the Eastern Seaboard. After some much needed rain for NE Florida over the last several days chances for precipitation into next week are looking good.
