When I think nice long period swell I look at the YouTube vids of perfect storm sending humongous NE swell down into Palm beach Surprising many . Accounts of one day had 3-4 foot NE swell jacking up to 20 feet on bouys by Afternoonin Palm beach from perfect storm far away
18 feet @20 seconds was peak swell
Such a monster storm .
Waste of swell potential here given recurve at 45 W ....could of been huge
i see maybe 3.5-4.5 @ 17 seconds on bouys in a week-10 day’s
Humberto delivered 9 @ 12.8 seconds in Rye NH last weekend
Im familiar w the Ederman cam^^
was down for Dorian in Palm beach on Tuesday. That was the day ...Barrels . Was at Red Reef park.
Steve that looks like point Judith
I liked this spot just north of Nahant beach couple saturdays ago and it’s close so it is either there or Plum Island.
Euro Ens slow this thing in NE swell window big time
if that WAR blocks it a time we will see some big barrels for days ...Maine NH , N shore and Cape ... with a faster SE swell for RI Wed/Thur
quite the swell maker
That eye Wall or Dorian. Strongest ever reported by Josh. 185 sustained ....just a eye Wall of total devestation. Made Andrew look almost weak in comparison (185 to 160)
Most of S FL doesn’t realize the bomb they dodged
More
this thing is undergoing RI , it’s pretty clear
plane will have center fix with winds by 8pm
thats 140 EZ
Its one of the nicer cores I’ve seen . This aint a 3 now
Euro Has not run but I Am very interested in where the turn west occurs
alllnensembles turned Dorian South of 26.5 N (unless im reading map wrong )
inbelieve models underdo the quickness of the turn as well as when they’ve sniffed out a slight WSW dip it also tends to be underdone on modeling
Equally concerning is the stall on CMC\UkMET on 0z models just inland . That throws a wrench in
Such a strong forecast turn at a longitude as Far East as forecast leaves a lot of room for error imo . Maybe models will be consistent next 48 on Strenth of ridge but also where this does its turn
I lived in S Fl for a long while
they have been exponentially lucky in Broward and South Palm beach county for 50 years . 5-0
So much money along the water. Super wealth
Do you believe this will expand significantly in size or remain rather small until a possible landfall
Interesting to see if the ridge orientation 72-120 hours out takes on a pure W-E orientation or even possibly shifts to create a WSW motion . Also what latitude it’s at when it turns west and feels the ridge makes all the difference
The fact this barely entered Caribbean really helped this become a disaster in THe making (avoiding land) and less favorable conditions
My worst post
my bad
This storm looks frightening as it has shifted so Far East that it went from crossing Hispaniola to going currently East of Puerto Rico as it strengthens .
