Forecast Overview: SURF ALERT
RIGHT NOW There are 2 storms that right now that have my interest. The first storm is spinning in the Western Atlantic and has been pushing a fun ESE groundswell toward our region for the past few days. This storm is forecast to move NE from its current position (just east of Bermuda) but still remain in our swell window tomorrow so the ESE groundswell should linger for the next few days .
The second storm is currently moving over the region right now This storm is moving over the region now so we can expect strong SE wind, heavy rain and rapidly building SE windswell (which builds over the existing ESE groundswell). Coastal and road flooding is also expected. Swell peaks after 10pm and begins to gradually drop. Wind is forecast to turn SW after sunset then W after midnight.
SUNDAY SURF ALERT Dawn Patrol should see solid 3-4ft+ E and SE combo swell with moderate W wind. Swell continues to drop gradually through the day.
Check out the 72 HOUR SURF FORECAST below for details.
NEXT WEEK Surf Alert Smaller but fun leftovers early next week. Check out the LONG RANGE FORECAST below for details.
The Good News: This swell event will have something for everyone but timing will be essential and we should see some fun leftovers early next week.
The Bad News: Since the peak of this swell event falls on a weekend you can expect crowds at the usual spots and the new moon last night will create tide issues so timing your sessions correctly will be critical.
THE X-FACTOR The Pacific Ocean is seeing back to back storms and it's just a matter of time before one makes its way east and delivers more solid surf for our region. Check out the Long Range Forecast below for details.
Attention ProSurf Coaches Clients: SURF ALERT Fun surf this weekend and next week! Check your SURF ALERT text messages & call your coach to schedule your sessions.

Tracking two more storms
Long Range Update
I am tracking several storms that have strong long range potential for surf. While it's too early to make specific calls I am very optimistic about the next 3-5 days. The other factor is the back to back storms in the Pacific. The thing to remember that this time of year we rely on these storms as they track east, make landfall on the West Coast then move across the US and over the East Coast. Please see the map above for storm-specific information.
Tuesday Surf Alert
NJ Small, fun surf with N wind. Best in Southern NJ at south facing spots.
NY Tiny but surfable with offshore wind.
