Saturday night, maybe afternoon,  the huge Nor’easter engulfing most of the Northeast, may throw some leftovers our way.

I wish I could say we’ll get more than that, but it looks like most of the swell will be pushing west to east sending the brunt of the swell toward England.  However, the swell direction does seem to turn toward us with the strength of a small ground swell sometime Saturday late,  and possibly light , very light onshore winds for Sunday morning.

Right now it’s looking like waist to chest high waves for South Cocoa Beach  and Satellite Beach.  It looks as though the Cape may be blocked out of most of the swell, but….I won’t say that definitively. As the swell approaches further, we’ll be able to make better determinations.

In the meantime, enjoy the XXL entrant photo from November, 2010, which was Eric Akiskalian I believe, photo complements of MagicSeaweed.com here.
