2nd Light on the East Coast. 8 foot at 11 seconds.
This gallery is from Wednesday in the afternoon. The storm offshore had winds sustained around 90 miles per hour. The swell was a mix of medium sized short period swell and large long period swell. Jaoquin sent some of the best surf we’ve had since Cristobal last year. Continue reading 2nd Light on the East Coast. 8 foot at 11 seconds.

East Coast – Hurricane Cristobal
Pumping surfed graced the shores of East Florida all last week. The quality of waves produced by this storm exceeded the quality of the waves by the previous two category 1 storms of this hurricane season. Why were the waves from Cristobal so fun? To assess this question we are going to look at the pressure of the air in the center of Hurricane Cristobal, then compare the air pressure in the center of Hurricane Arthur and Hurricane Bertha. While many additional variables are important to determining the quality of waves produced by hurricanes, looking at the pressure of these storms will provide us with information about these storms strength and it will help us determine how accurate we can be Continue reading East Coast – Hurricane Cristobal
Tropical Storm/Hurricane Bertha
This storm took shape as tropical storm Bertha in the carribean near Barbados. It needed to cross harsh atmospheric environment and land masses before it was able to strengthen into a hurricane. After emerging into open water of the western atlantic it began to strengthen and just as it emerged into the wave window for most of east Florida it’s winds were sustained at 75 mph, the minimum to be categorized as a hurricane. At 3am on Monday tropical storm Bertha’s winds were sustained at 65 miles per hour. By nine in the morning the winds were sustained at 70 miles per hour; not quite hurricane winds. At 3pm the reconissance team returned with evidence of sustained winds at 80mph, and so on August 4 at 3pm the storm was considered a Hurricane. Continue reading Tropical Storm/Hurricane Bertha
Sweet Tea at New Smyrna
The water at the beach today was a murky brown color, identical to sweet tea. The shade gave the inside an erie feeling. The thoughts of the shark attack last week kept repeating in my mind as the drift drew surfers closer and closer to the jetty (the location where the most recent shark attack occurred). Swirls in the water Continue reading Sweet Tea at New Smyrna
