Hurricanes and storm watch updates

[hookedonbass]

Its July and we have the first one Arthur coming this weekend just in time to ruin some peoples good times. Opinions? Who's hoping that some of these storms wash away the beaches and we get our rocks back again?
A little preview of the storm track

[Monty]

With the large waves running up the beach and pulling all that crap they call sand back into the wash and surf zone I am thinking it will be a mess for a few days.
Sand spreading out and burying creatures.
I tend to over think things and may be completely 100% clueless on this.

[bababooey]

I fear no storm but Sandy. This will be but a mere hiccup. Stock up on plenty of liquid just in case.:plastered:

[finchaser]

Media Hype water is too cold here to support a hurricane

Ba Ba good advice I'll make a beer run now

[robmedina]

I'm heading to Florida in a few days- I looked at the beach cams there an hour ago and it was business as usual. You would not even know there was a tropical storm off the coast right now.

[bababooey]

Ba Ba good advice I'll make a beer run now

Beer is ok but I prefer to start my holiday with Dewars and water on the rocks. Much cleaner. Usually try to wait till noon but its the start of the 4th so what the hey a few hours early won't kill anyone. Save the beer for the burgers when the guests come over.:HappyWave:
We can't let these storms intimidate us we are Jersey proud. Eff Sandy and Arthur too!:2flip:

You must have heard the jimmy buffet lyric "It's 5 oclock somewhere":plastered: Hope you have a great holiday. Dont drink and drive!

[7deadlyplugs]

From the NWS -
Cristobal - tropical storm cristobal, which is far south of the area, looks to move well off our coast for the next 3-5 days giving us some tropical swell for the rest of the week.

[basshunter]

Well we made it through cristobal with no problem. If the other storms stay that far offshore we might have a good fall.

[fishinmission78]

Yeah it did mess up the surf for a few days. We do need a strong weather system to help break up these damn weeds. They're still here but getting better.

[bababooey]

Latest is tropical storm norbert. This north east weather could be an affect of that.

[cowherder]

got a doozy coming tomorrow night! They are predicting 20-30 inches depending on what part of the state you are in. Batten down the hatches guys.

[hookedonbass]

Here it is just starting to get snotty. mostly rain so far
19142

[cowherder]

I got only 8". How about you fellas?

[bababooey]

^^^^^When you click on the activity stream it says you only got 8". Thought you were rudely complaining that God short changed you in the package dept. You want to be careful how you phrase that stuff dude.:)
We got 6". Toms River area. This storm was a dud. Thanks for small favors I hate snow.

[VSdreams]

I'm in paramus. we got about 6 " and a little more in the drifts

[hookset]

Little gnarly out there today, no surfing. from the web cam.

Lord please make this the LAST snow storm of the season!

[bababooey]

Fred is the first one I'm aware of.
tropical depression Fred- http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/
The beaches will be pretty gnarly for the next 48 hours. Post up others as they get closer.

[surferman]

I could be wrong but think I read somewhere it wouldn't be that bad this year. Last year was pretty mellow in my neck of the woods.

[finchaser]

Storm is 2700 miles from here and headed NE
This weather is from a cold front and low moving out of Carolina's
Also last week Erika was 1st named hurricane this year:HappyWave:

[bababooey]

Well I may have been a little late to the hurricane party. Serves me right for drinking on a fri afternoon. I'll pay closer attention next time. Thanks for the clarification there finchaser. And hope you and yours have a safe and healthy labor day weekend.:HappyWave:

[bababooey]

I def think it won't be as bad as 2013 was lol.
I'm not a meteorologist but I did stay at a holiday inn last night!

Holiday inn express. I was just clarifying before you had everyone running out for milk and bread. Same to you and yours we need to have a beer together one day
You don't have the BA BA Bouy boat I always see on the Manasquan

:don't know why: I got to go and try and catch a few finny creatures:fishing:

Later:HappyWave:

You posted that at 3:30 today and you were drinking already? Man you must have the life.

No that's not my boat but I have seen it on occasion.
my name came about because I'm a big fan of the Stern Show.
they did go downhill once they went to satellite though.

[bababooey]

I hope l don't get flamed for this but just wondering why the universal fascination for striped bass? Fluke and tog taste so much better.

[finchaser]

I hope l don't get flamed for this but just wondering why the universal fascination for striped bass? Fluke and tog taste so much better.

I agree so much better and lets not forget seabass. When fluke and blackfish limits decreased and bass rebounded as I refer to them fluke fisherman gone wild became so called bass fisherman , with out snag and drop bunker most can't catch a fish but they will return on 9/27/15 when they can't fish for fluke. Lets not forget the rest of the snag and drop crew who can only catch a fish that way.

[surferman]

Dont want to be the bearer of bad news. Wish someone would take a camera and take pics before and after the hurricanes. i bet there will be millions of dollars of sand washed away. Oh well the federal government will always come in and fix it. smh

[voyager35]

Right now we have 2 tropical depressions approaching our north atlantic area. Will put a damper on some of the boats going out for sure.

[cowherder]

Got woken up at 5:30 this morning by my shutters flapping. Thinking this one will be a doozy.

[hookset]

Sea girt crews were out yesterday building fake temporary dunes. Don't know if that does any good at all.

[finchaser]

Got woken up at 5:30 this morning by my shutters flapping. Thinking this one will be a doozy.

Should have been out with us fishing my jacket was flapping on some of the gusts:HappyWave:

Here's the latest from the patch. joaquin weakening but still some strong tide and storm surges.
http://patch.com/new-jersey/brick/s/fbc0g/hurricane-joaquin-weakens-east-coast-flooding-still-likely

[VSdreams]

They are saying Patricia will be one of the worst in history with 200mph winds. We should be getting the effects by mid week. Article of what that means to nj.

http://nj1015.com/hurricane-patricia-to-slam-into-the-pacific-coast-of-mexico/

[cowherder]

I don't want to see anyones house destroyed but am hoping for a change of weather to shake things up. NJ fishing really SUCKSS right now.

[hookset]

^^^^ What he said. With the way fishing has been for me so far, it can't hurt that's for sure.

[buckethead]

Tomorrow I think we're getting a pretty fair amount of rain. Could push some bait and fish out of the back bays and along the coast. Hopefully

[jigfreak]

Pattricia is a coming. Up to 1.5 or more inches. "Hopefully" is putting it mildly. We need some colder weather to push the bait out. Seen a lot of bait last night but not much on em.

[VSdreams]

New one passing our way this weekend.
http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2014/12/icy_roadways_possible_as_noreaster_barrels_toward_ new_jersey.html

[plugcrazy]

This is an interesting noreaster. Actually very wet. The rain was coming down in buckets on my roof this morning and woke me up. I was checking the weather cams and found this of the manasquan inlet. before sunup you can see the rain coming sideways from the East. Those are the little streaks you see in the pics. After light was in the sky it became harder to see them. That is the 2nd pic.

[cowherder]

Cool shots PC. Boy this storm coming through might be a doozy! We are supposed to have 3-6 inches fri and then another 3-6 on sat. Batten down the hatches.:scared:

[jigfreak]

Saw the forecast. Get your salt before they run out.

An easy 15 inches in Fairfield. 10 inches around 1:00, at least 5 since. Snow blower 2x, wearing my waders :).

[SharkHart]

We just hit 30" in the philly area, and still going to snow 4 more hours..................global warming whaaaat

[storminsteve]

At least 28" in bergen county. Didn't measure it still digging out!

[buckethead]

We got over 24 inches in Monmouth as well.

[finchaser]

Ditto in ocean county

[finchaser]

Cape May Cove

[lostatsea]

That looks ugly thanks for sharing. We got 30 inches in hunterdon what about the rest of you guys?

[fishinmission78]

About 28" in ocean, we got hammered!

[fishinmission78]

Quick pics from FB, etc. The millions of sand put down on OC and MC has been washed away. Pallone will have to be the hero again and beg for more money.

[fishinmission78]

I'm done with the snow for the winter. No more.

[jigfreak]

X2 on that. hurt my back shoveling, really sucked.

[clamchucker]

Noreaster Mon-Wed. The latest prediction by Cherry Hill meteorologist Gary Szatkowski. This is the worst case scenario. It seems we in ocean and monmouth might get the worst of it.

[seamonkey]

I don't think we are going to get as much as you guys up North. Good luck and be careful out there.

[dogfish]

Yeah even the predictions for our state have fizzled out. Thank God.

[VSdreams]

:clapping::clapping: No complaints from me on that. The noreaster, that wasn't.

[cowherder]

I was all set to go fishing this weekend and looked at the forecast. Snow all weekend whoa?
Saturday Night
A chance of snow after 2am. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 30. Light and variable wind becoming northeast 12 to 17 mph in the evening. Chance of precipitation is 50%. New snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible.

Sunday
Snow likely before 2pm, then snow and sleet likely. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 38. Breezy. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New precipitation amounts between a quarter and half of an inch possible.

Sunday Night
Snow and sleet likely, becoming all snow after 8pm. Cloudy, with a low around 32. Chance of precipitation is 70%.

[hookset]

Thanks for the report. They downgraded that a bit. I think we may get half that. Would be glad because I am sick of the snow. Calm before the storm.

[plugginpete]

Really do hope it's less than they said. Have to make a long drive from the inlaws tomorrow and don't want to get stuck in the slushy crap and insane traffic if it does come down.

[buckethead]

Last I heard we are going to get mostly rain in monmouth and ocean.

They are about to upgrade Matthew to a cat5. Consider yourselves lucky it started so far south.

[surfstix1963]

Matthew in North Topsail NC.Starting to pick up some but it isn't here yet..

[surfstix1963]

That house probably won't be there unless they are very lucky.

[buckethead]

I agree.

[buckethead]

Thanks for sharing surfstix. Your new place, is it close to the beach?

[storminsteve]

I think ss moved to the Carolinas if I'm not mistaken. Be careful down there, batten down the hatches!

[surfstix1963]

I'm about a half hour away from Topsail.
Thanks for sharing surfstix. Your new place, is it close to the beach?

[surfstix1963]

A few pics from yesterday @Topsail beach,where new inlet meets the ocean.

[surfstix1963]

Thanks Steve I believe we will just get a lot of rain and wind should be done by tmw. morning.

[storminsteve]

Wow those houses are so close. Why the heck would they put something so close to the ocean and it's going to get smashed in a big storm? BTW awesome pics, thanks for sharing

[surfstix1963]

That beach was fairly large 10 years ago they say, the new inlet caused the erosion by these houses.But nowadays you have to expect to lose your house if you build on the beach it's a crap shoot.

[jigfreak]

Wonder how much insurance the guys on the inlet are paying.

[finchaser]

should have never been built there

[surfstix1963]

I agree...If you lose it you should not be able to rebuild period.

should have never been built there

[surfstix1963]

I have no idea,those homes are right on the corner of the inlet and ocean the rest of the houses are all on the intracoastal waterway.I'm a 1/2 hour from the ocean and my taxes are $2300 a year for a 1/2 acre 5 bedroom 3 bath home. Compared to NY @ $12,000 a year 1/4 acre 3 bedroom ranch w/ 1 1/2 baths.
Wonder how much insurance the guys on the inlet are paying.

[seamonkey]

$2300 a year you lucky dog!
I don't think there are any houses in Jersey for $2,300 a year taxes. Unless you go to Camden LOL

[surfstix1963]

No probably not,I'm just trying to figure out why it costs so much in NY you don't get anything the roads suck idk I really don't miss it as much as I thought I would.
$2300 a year you lucky dog!

[buckethead]

I was thinking about moving to North Carolina as well. the grandchildren are still young so we are sticking around for awhile.
however, with taxes of 2,300 it sounds like you found a paradise. we are paying 10,500 a year in Monmouth County. there seems to be no relief in sight.

[buckethead]

Forgot to add, those are some very revealing storm pics. Thanks for sharing

[surfstix1963]

We like it here,fishing is a bit different no stripers or blues unless you stay up towards the outer banks and I don't think the fishing there is all that great anymore.Red and black drum are running now mainly bait fishing some mullet very small blues.We were just tired of paying all those taxes and getting nothing in return,different lifestyle here it's not a rat race people are actually nice here.Prices are going up house wise as is property if my taxes do go up I'm not stressing because I will probably be dead by the time they reach ny rates if that ever happens.

This latest storm is a pretty strong one. Weather crew just measured the wind at Long Beach and they were 50 mph

[finchaser]

Wind gusted 77 miles per hour at 1:29 PM today at Man inlet

All the new sand is gone total waste of money. Water is coming through and over the railing on the Manasquan side of inlet

No beaches from Bayhead to seaside water up against seawalls and dunes

I could do without this nastiness. Wintry mix, what an oxymoron. it's been on and off snowing for the last 24 hours. I bet the auto body shops will be raking in the cash in February.
