What a nice run of conditions, pretty much everyday or evening wind hanging in the teens, tipping into the low 20's or better in gusts. We've even had swells at times off Palm Beach County. I normally risk drowning in calm water through the dark effects of FWN* Despite that what should have been side offshore winds last night were nicely bent sideshore at the coast. It was pretty flat out a couple of hundred yards. Despite the flatness every ten minutes or so a nice 3 to 4 ft. groundswell would pop up around a 100 yards offshore. Catch it with a rising gust and up you go!

The night before the wind was even stronger. What a great way to wind down the season, with MORE of the same we hope. The forecast suggests a few more days into the weekend of similar stuff!

What sort of sessions have folks been getting?



* FWN - A newly classified malady, "Flat Water Narcolepsy!" The only known cures at present are nice swells in good wind or a float line of roosters crowing in lifejackets?!
