Write up for the next round of surf/Nor’easter can be found here
Another Nor’easter is expected to pass by our region on Sunday and should generate some powerful ENE swell for our region (this time without the snow, at least for NJ). North Carolina looks to get the most from this system but good luck getting to Hatteras after the snowfall. South NJ should do OK on Sunday afternoon if looking to get as much from the swell as possible. Otherwise, Monday is looking particularly fun for this area depending on how well the sandbars handle the easterly swell direction.
After that, there’s another potential system impacting our region mid-week. I’m not seeing anything on the swell charts from this, but it’s worth keeping in mind. I wouldn’t expect much if there is something, but it could work out with a bit of remaining swell from this weekend’s Nor’easter.
A clipper system is possible next weekend with a little bit of snow as well. I’m not expecting any surf from that system at the moment.

Actual swell looks more like 2ft@10s. There should be enough for a longboard, but it’s not looking great.
Notes: It’s really not worth it. Mid-tide in the AM if you want to go for some reason.
Best board: longboard

Friday 2/06 - Weekend
Flat on the charts, but a couple of runs have suggested we could see some waves on 2/6. Low expectations at this time.
Looking Ahead
It’s probably going to be slow for a week or so. Around Valentines day is the next time period to watch.
Stay warm and check back later.
