*Surf forecast for the Palm Beaches and Treasure Coast*
UPDATED: January 10, 2025
<<WAVE REWIND<<
We had some fun waves at the beginning of the week.
SURFCAST DISCUSSION
After a week-long stagnant weather pattern, It looks like we're moving into a more active pattern now. Starting with a cold front pushing in on Sunday night/Monday. Expect a quick shot of NE winds cranking up again, then some lingering moderate NE winds as the front stalls just to the south. So just a two day shot of rideable surf. But with a more progressive/faster pattern, we will get another front on Friday. This one looks to have a chance at some refraction swell. Timing and specifics have been changing on the models, with the latest being earlier now (late Thursday rather than early Friday). But expect some more adjustment as time goes by. The refraction signature on the GFS model has been pretty consistent (except for timing) however the Euro doesn't want anything to do with it which brings some uncertainty. Euro is late/weaker, GFS stronger/earlier. So timing will be either late Thursday or Friday at this time.
DAILY SURFCAST SPECIFICS:
SATURDAY10: Small knee high southeast windchop wave. SE 10-15kts.
SUNDAY11: Going flat. Wind light and variable.
MONDAY12: Waist to chest high NE windchop building in. Drifty. Wind may actually back off a bit in the afternoon. Wind NE 20kts.
TUESDAY13: Knee/Waist high fading NE windchop wave. Cleaner upcoast. Wind :NE 5-10kts.
WEDNESDAY14: Back to flat. Wind: SE 5-10kts.
THURSDAY15: Flat early but a chance the refraction swell will build in by sunset. Wind NW 25kts.
FRIDAY16: Possibly a chest high plus refraction action swell, but winds may swing around quickly. Wind N 10-15kts.

LONG RANGER SURFCAST
With the faster moving pattern, tracking more possibilities with a system around the 19th, and again around the 23rd, with some windchop in between so at least we're looking at more consistent waves now. That should at least round out January with more consistency. February has a tendency to slow down some but I'm still seeing hints of this pattern spilling into February so hopefully we can maintain something to ride out there. Some hope so hang in there, we still have a lot of season left. Stay tuned!
