Surfing Waves

I've never seen a chart looking quite as fleshed up as this one...



All over the place! And back to front from what you'd expect at this time of year!

Sadly, its confused but not confusing..... No waves, rubbish weather. Bit of wind blown chop if you're lucky

No end to the flat spell yet....

depressing aint it, id be happy to surf messy wind slop right now

I'm very sorry to say but I've been surfing 2-3ft and very clean on a reef in Trinidad..... that was the day before yesterday.... I very much enjoyed it, although the waves weren't very powerful!

hahahah Phil, I'm even sorrier to say that it was more of a longboarder's wave, and you really would have enjoyed it! Oh well, I'm not getting to surf again util Wednesday, so it's not all great! hehee

lovely warm water as well, enjoy it while you can mate. The way the charts look there wont be any surf to come back to

Things are about to drop off here for a little while too.



Wrote an app that collates relevant info from the web and sets my desktop image to it The above is a scaled down version of this morning's image.

Five days or so until the next pulse... The weekend's a bit of a writeoff so far.

This flat spell is getting silly...

Looking as far ahead as possible (middle of next week) and this high pressure is STILL sitting there to the west of the UK blocking any hope of decent swell

I can feel my paddling muscles shrivelling to nothing

come down to newquay next week it might be xxxxx surf but there will be some thing at least might be all we get for a while

go east! weve had swell all week man! shame i only got to hit it on friday

Yeah, I know. Blown out and lumpy but at least it was a wave
Thats on the way out too now - welcome to the flat spell

Yeah and just to top if off, i just heard from jenny. She's at inches strand in ireland and it's 2-3ft and offshore. Just what i wanted to hear whilst i'm stuck in my office so i though i'd share it with you.

KS

...well not exactly blown out but deffo a few lumps

Broosta, mate, you're losing friends all over




Looks nice...
I coulda come up, but scarborough etc is so flippin' far in a campervan and I wasnt all that confident about whether it was gonna work or not, 'cos Im no expert on the NE coast. Next time I'll give someone local a shout (ie you) and see whether you think its worth the drive

That water looks so dirty and gross.

Finally... hints of a change beginning for next week... A low (possibly) developing, although a bit far north, and FINALLY pushing this huge area of low pressure south. Still early days, but the sea might not be quite so much like a pond by the middle/end of next week
