i live right above the beach and i still do forcasting. It really helps if you know the local area as you will know how direction, period, size, tide, and wind will play.

It has actually become far more easier now with the advent of the interwebs. :lol:

Just wondering if anyone else actually did do. I may give it a try and see if it helps me out.
