HURRICANE WATCH October 10th, 2014 – An area of disorganized thunderstorms is located near the coast of Central America. This area of low pressure will slowly drift northwestward and remain in close proximity to land. Due to the proximity to land, development with this system will be slow, likely not through the weekend. Regardless of development, heavy rain, flash flooding and mudslides will threaten portions of western Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala over the next several days.

Elsewhere across the eastern Pacific Basin, no tropical development is expected over the next 24-48 hours.

For Friday morning we’ll see small background swell out of both the SW and NW. There may be a few larger straggler sets out of the SW if you’re lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time, but I would just take care of any pressing matters and wait for the Winter swell season to kick into high gear.

For Sunday morning we’ll see some fresh, long interval NW energy move in from a 285-290 degrees, with 16-18 second intervals. This should put the top spots into the chest high zone for the late as it filters in through the morning, and the swell should slowly increase into chest to head high + zone for the afternoon.

We’ll also see some small, but long interval energy out of the SW. This will have 16+ second intervals from a liberal 220-225 degrees.

By Monday morning we’ll see that long interval NW swell peak with chest to head high plus sets at most West facing breaks and larger overhead waves at the top deep water beaches.

We’ll continue to see that small, but long interval energy out of the SW from a liberal 220-225 degrees.

The tides look reasonable enough and with another high pressure system in place the conditions should be pretty good all day.

For Tuesday morning that same swell will remain strong through the morning with chest to shoulder high sets and then very slowly ease up into the afternoon.
