Updated Surf Forecast of Friday, 9/12/08

Winds are blowing onshore right now and it is sloppy but looks like some fun rides in places. Frisco looks small and the Avon Pier cam shows an incredibly flat scenario - must be from the summer because it is too windy for those small, glassy conditions. The cams at Rodanthe thru Kitty Hawk are all showing some wave action.

Winds go offshore overnight and we should still have some surf - need to find the peaks. That we can do!

The storm that used to be known as Josephine is still hanging around. It is not forecast to become a named storm again, but most models are forecasting this storm to track up the Florida and SE coast line. She may just give us some southerly swells.

Griz's original flight itinerary for Saturday, out of San Antonio, connecting in Houston and flying into Norfolk was scratched yesterday by Ike. He was rebooked for Sunday, but as of this morning is now rerouted on Sunday from San Antonio to Newark to Norfolk. He will be getting in late evening. Let's not forget to set aside a nice plate of leftovers.

GuidoPalooza's Blake Memorial Putt Putt Championship
In the event of flatness we shall, in memory of the former surfer, Blake of alt.surfing, institute the GuidoPalooza's Blake Memorial Putt Putt Championship. The Blakstah used to be a hell raising surfer in San Francisco that chastised everyone that didn't like within 5 miles of the beach. He now lives in Augusta, GA, and posts on the usenet golfing group.

A name suggestion that came my way is:
The Blakooksta ASPPGOTY award? (alt.surfing putt putt golfer of the year)

Have a good trip everyone!
