THIS FORECAST HAS
NOT BEEN UPDATED.
Forecast Overview: New swell builds today and tonight
RIGHT NOW There's a large frontal system moving in from the west. This system brings increasing S wind later today as well as building S and SSW windswell tonight.
TOMORROW This same system will bring a fun southerly windswell tomorrow. There is also a building E/ESE groundswell from a strengthening storm in the Western Atlantic. Both of these systems will bring a fun combo swell.
THE GOOD NEWS Tuesday will see fun surf from a combo of short-period S windswell as well as E/ESE groundswell.
THE BAD NEWS If you plan on surfing at all this week, hit it on Tuesday because once this frontal system moves off the coast the offshore wind will knock it flat by tomorrow night and this flat spell is forecast to last into at least Saturday, but...
THE X-FACTOR There's a strengthening storm in the Western Atlantic, southeast of Bermuda that is slowly moving closer to our swell window. This storm is dragging an active frontal system behind it so there will be other cells within that system. If/When this storm moves into position this could potentially change the swell numbers for late week and the weekend. I will keep you posted if there are any developments.
Check out the 72 Hour Surf Forecast below for details.
MORE GOOD NEWS The Pacific is lit up with storms and these storms will inevitably cross into the US and eventually bring more surf to our region.

Seasonal Outlook
Check out Surfline's Seasonal Outlook HERE
-
Mid to Late Fall sees fewer tropical storms and hurricanes
-
Instead we will be relying on cells of low pressure carried by cross-country frontal systems as they cross the US Mainland as well as Nor'easters.
-
Although we are past the peak of the 2019 Hurricane Season, the Tropics remain active.
-
Stay tuned and be ready for storms to develop over or make landfall on our region and the surf that results as they pass.

Nothing happening
in the Tropics now
Overview: The Season is winding down
There's a weak cluster of thunderstorms in the Atlantic Basin now
This system is entering a hostile environment so development at this time is highly unlikely. I will keep you posted if things change but don't hold your breath.
The 2019 Hurricane Season
There are less than three weeks left. This is the time tropical development is improbable but not impossible. We will monitor the tropics yet the variables required for a storm to strengthen and develop tropical characteristics is very, very low.
Outside of the Tropics we will be watching other sources for swell-producing storms such as cold fronts, strong cells of low pressure and Nor'easters. Any one of these can develop tropical features, as was the case with Melissa.
