​​​​​​​​​​​​​FORECAST OVERVIEW

WEEKEND

SURF and WEATHER ALERT

Three strengthening storms are converging off our coast now, and things are going

off the rails. These storms are merging and continuing to strengthen and stall just

off the coast, so our local wind (currently NW) will remain at gale force through 

most of Sunday so surf will most likely be blown out but expected to increase in the arvo and overnight. 

WEATHER ALERT Subsequently, NJ will see snow (with some accumulation) but

the real problem will be gale force NW wind and subzero air temps. NOTE: Wind gusts are expected to reach 50+mph and air temps drop to well-below zero. Another

LONG RANGE FORECAST 

EARLY to MID WEEK

SURF ALERT

The secondary storm lingers offshore and continues to strengthen. This results in

increased E groundswell on Monday and lingers into Tuesday and Wednesday. 

NOTE: Because of the ever-changing variables around these storms, this forecast

is subject to change.

​​​​​​​​​​​X-FACTORS

The track of the Jet Stream has dropped fruther south. So any storm that tracks

eastward from the North Pacific will move diagonally from Southwest Canada, 

across the Great Lakes then exit off the Carolinas and into the Western Atlantic. 

With the hyperactivity that's currently happening in the Pacific, our region is setting

up to see plenty of storms and swell events at least through the end of winter. 

But the problem with the dip in the jet is that cold air from Canada will drop over 

our region, so we can expect this cold weather to continue until the pattern changes.

 

Another thing that you will need to consider before paddling out is deep snow and 

ice have either blocked or impeded beach access and parking at some spots has been limited because huge piles of packed snow and ice have blocked parking spaces, so I suggest packing a shovel just in case.
