SEEMS ODD THAT THEY CANNOT SHOW BEAUFORT OR MOREHEAD CITY WIND VELOCITY! NOR CAPE LOOKOUT


HAVE WE BEEN BLOWN AWAY?

I DEMAND THAT NWS DISPLAY SOME KIND OF WIND VELOCITY ON THEIR WEBSITE EVEN IF IT IS AN OUTRIGHT LIE!

I saw that the seas kicked up to 38 feet last night!!!!

Damn thing has spread all the way to here with winds running to around 40 and now the seas pushing up to 18 foot.... My poor missus ... She's on a cruise ship in the middle of that crap... She's done cruises before but her sister and brother and law have not. I don't care how big the ship...they WILL feel 18 foot junk... Shame, I was hoping their first impression of a cruise would be a great one...

GULF STREAM HAZARDS
WINDS OVER 20 KNOTS WITH HIGHER GUSTS WILL
OCCUR THROUGH TODAY. THIS WILL CAUSE WIND WAVES TO INCREASE TODAY
WHILE SWELL BUILD AS WELL. WIND WAVES AND SWELL WILL COMBINE TO
PRODUCE WAVES APPROACHING 20 FEET BY TONIGHT. WAVES ARE EXPECTED TO
DROP TO LESS THAN 7 FEET ON WEDNESDAY.

THE APPROXIMATE LOCATION OF THE WEST WALL OF THE GULF STREAM AS OF
MAY 07, 2007 AT 1200 UTC...

4 NAUTICAL MILES EAST NORTHEAST OF FOWEY ROCKS.
6 NAUTICAL MILES EAST OF PORT EVERGLADES.
3 NAUTICAL MILES EAST OF LAKE WORTH.

Deep how bout 40.8 ft at 1:00 am gettin right is there any king crabs off here i think Sig and the boys would be a little tight in these.

That stuff is just plain ugly... I've done 30' one time in my life (off South Africa) and it was amazing... We had gone out after a storm and that stuff was out there to greet us, wasn't fresh but still it had me real quiet all day just being awestruck...

I've done some big stuff like 15' in cruise ships... Some you don't feel but some you really get a ride. Royal Carribean has big awsome boats with all the toys but sometimes their toys to stop that roll are broke... Mrs Deep and family will be getting it right on the beam through the stream until about midnight before they get some block from Grand Bahama 30 miles to their north. About 4 am it will be on their stern and that part of the ride ought to be fine...

well, so much for my ferry ride to ocracoke today. the boat' staying home this trip. look's like we're gonna lay up around MHC for a couple days till we can get across. Where's the hotspots in Morehead anyway. Was there a riggin school around this week?

There's always a rigging school going on. I remember a couple years back at the Hatteras Village Open, we got blown out 3 days, 2 of them were 60+ kt winds. Even had a water spout hit the Run-Off at Teach's. We had 1-2 foot seas in the coffee pot. Since there is not a F&%king thing to do in Hatteras if you are not fishing, Marty and Pitch Bait put on a rigging seminar in a gale, complete with Grundens and airborne ballyhoos. We even got the better halves involved. The man knows no bounds when it comes to rigging a ballyhoo, especially when riggin one is all that you can do.

Wahoo-Cantore did a weather report that weekend, this might be a fitting time for a re-air of the report.
