Title: Neat site for Forecasting the Surf
Post by: SeaFlea on November 25, 2008, 09:09:03 AM

For those of you crazy enough to enjoy surf launches...
I was just made aware of this site on another forum and thought it would only be fair to share with y'all...

Great site the more info intake the better the judgment call can be made.

I like this site as it gives wave heights pretty cool.

The three I use now are:

National Weather Service:
http://www.erh.noaa.gov/er/phi/

Weather Underground:
http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=Seaside%20Park%20NJ&wuSelect=WEATHER

BTW this station is only 2 blocks from my house pretty cool.

And now I have bookmarked the one you suggested:
http://www.swellinfo.com/surf-forecast/seaside-heights-new-jersey.html

I set yours for Seaside Heights but I see it is still coming out of Belmar-Farmingdale.  That's OK I am guessing the wave heights are being manually put in so it still helps.

Thanks again.

Happy Catching

Paul

Thanks guys!  Yeah Paul, the more info the better!  Wunderground is #1 on my weather sites NOAA is #2. 'swellinfo' has just become #1 site for surf data.  I've noticed that the drop-down bowes, up in 'FORCAST' are really easy to use to jump from one location to another...  I'll have to look into the location where data is truly coming from...

I think for our area in TR it is emanating from Belmar - Farmingdale area.
