Storm has started out slow here...lots of constant wind...loud but only an inch or so of slushy snow so far. As of ten minutes ago they are still saying 20"+ for me but I'm feeling hype at this point

Storm started slow and ended early....8" of wet and sloppy snow...too heavy for my snow blower so I shoveled it. I'm somewhat weird in that I sometimes enjoy shoveling so not too bad. Felt good to get a sweat going standing in a blizzard.

I'm staying local tomorrow from the looks of it. If I can get out of the wind it could be nice.

Well- ended up getting snowed in in Northern CT rather than surfing- wind would have been way too much i think anyway- besides the snow- RI was blowing 40 that Tues am!

and yeah a deep state holy rollers meetup would be great--i get up there more often when it's warm, but shd be attending to my gutted house i have ignored due to laziness--my legascy house up there is fine tho, so i really shd kick myself in the ass and get drawings/permits done, get a GC etc--a good swell may be what it takes

I have a lot weather links. Some of the news outlets are covering the prolific number of nor'easters that have traveled along the eastern seaboard all the way up into New England.

One of these news outlets is saying there is a another chance a fourth nor'easter will impact the areas already reeling from the first three nor'easters. If this long range forecast pans out, it will arrive around March 20th.

Had a great session today at second beach. Wind died. Waist to chest clean no crowds. Only one other supster.

First was closing out. NFG. MTK on the other side was ok early and then the wind got on it.

LC smaller as the swell was a southeast long period surprise.

The snowsquall that greeted me was not fun..

Dang, just missed you Mr. Big.....I was going back and forth between the two beaches.  When I was at 2nd there was one SUP-er (on a blue Starboard I think) along with 4 proners are hanging east of the rock.  First was definitely bigger but looked to be a challenge.

Went back out yesterday and had it to myself....occasionally gorgeous sets of stomach to chest rolling in.  Soooo fun and a beautiful day.  The dunking's felt quite refreshing....

Come on spring!

That looks like a fun wave..especially considering the go-pro lens effect.
