Huge waves this weekend, be safe! Surfers will be happy.

So nice after weeks of strong, locally driven winds.
I actually look forward to winters now.

Have the waves hit north side STT yet? I'm gonna drive out to Frederiksted to check it out.

Just looking at the C'sted harbor cam I'm only seeing light winds form the north/north west. Nothing big a Mermaid Beach yet either.

Yep. It was fairly calm this morning.
Northside waves now are pounding in, even in areas that you don't normally see with breaking surf.
Even Magens Bay effected.
High waterline.
Be safe.

It's quite roaring in now.

Still quiet in C'sted.

STT,SJJ and BVI and PR are slowing the waves down for us.

Weather has dramatic effect on STT shorelines!

The difference between the North and South sides of STT are dramatic.

The harbor is like a glassy pond while Northside bay's and beaches are all crashing waves and disturbed waters.
