Florida Surf Report/Forecast and Tropical Outlook for May 31st 2024
Atlantic Surf Report and Forecast
Friday: knee high to start the day. Onshore winds pick up as the day goes on pushing up a little wind swell by last light.
Weekend: Thigh to lucky waist chunky wind swell with strong onshore winds. Looks like it may be ridable in the better spots but you will have to work for it a bit.
Looking ahead: Surf will settle into the knee to lucky thigh range at 6-7 secs for most of the work week. We will see mostly onshore winds keeping the quality on lower side.
South Florida Surf report and Forecast
Friday: Small to flat in most spots. PBC may see a knee high wave now and then.
Weekend: Knee high wind swell with a few lucky bigger sets. Winds are onshore and pretty strong so don’t expect much for wave quality.
Looking ahead: Staying small for the work week. We may see a little something next weekend.

Tropics and Hurricane Forecast
Not too much currently, but the warm waters and favorable conditions suggest an active season ahead. I anticipate the emergence of named storms possibly around mid June.
I'll be out of town next week and I probably will not be able to update the articles so check out the cams and the wave models for the latest
Have a great one! - Bryan
