Merry Christmas from the Green Room
We would like to say merry Christmas to all our friends and offer you our sincere wish for a happy new year. We will be closed on Christmas day and again on Monday the 26th to enjoy the holiday with our families. May the Joy of Christmas fill your hearts and bring you great happiness this holiday season!!
Weekend NE Swell
We have a developing system in the off shore waters that will intensify through the weekend and bring a nice NE swell to area beaches by late Saturday. Sea heights for this event should peak on Sunday with 6′ swell @ 7 seconds registering on the off shore buoy. The swell holds for Monday with slightly longer swell periods and more favorable winds from the north. Look for punchy chest high surf with bigger sets on Sunday and moderate NNE winds from side shore. Similar surf on Monday with larger sets from the increased period and cleaner conditions.

Solid Nor’ Easter to start November
A potent low pressure system will form off of the Carolina coast this weekend and track slowly NNE. The combination of this low and building high pressure from New England will result in moderate to strong NE wind fetch over the entire east coast. We will have a quickly building NE swell on Saturday producing head high surf by the afternoon. Sunday holds and we have a very slow decline through most of next week. There will be enough fetch to produce swell periods of 10-12 seconds in Carolina which should allow us to enjoy some fun and sizable surf for several days. Classic Nor’ Easter set -up. Water temps have drop to the mid 60′s and the tides will be rising late day with a full moon on Tuesday. I expect the surf to be solid this weekend with plenty of tasty leftovers well in to Thursday. This swell will send the first “real” samplings of winter to our brothers in the Caribbean by early next week. Expect 8′ to 10′ faces from the NNW on the north shore of Puerto Rico Monday.
Cool Fall Nor’ Easter for the weekend and coming week
We have cooler fall weather today and the north Atlantic is stirring to life! The surf will build throughout today and should be fun on Saturday morning. This is in conflict with what most surf forecast pages are saying. They have the surf already here and gone tomorrow. I believe from experience that it will be the other away around….. we’ll see. Should be a drop on Sunday and Monday with a strong reinforcement by mid week. As of this morning; a solid ENE swell with NNW to NNE winds is setting up for next week. The water temp is holding @ 70; but that will change quickly this week with lower air temps and northerly swell filling in. Its time to put away the spring suits and funboards and get busy with the late fall/ winter season.
