Bob Freeman’s Surf Report For October 14-16 In Brevard County

By Bob Freeman // October 15, 2016

has been surfing Brevard's waves since 1966

Waves are looking mostly unrideable this morning. Late-morning's lower tide could help make the small waves more rideable by then. Surfers seeking an early morning surf session may want to focus on Cocoa Beach's northernmost beaches for a longboardable wave. — Cocoa Beach ocean temperatures now average 79 degrees.

SURF REPORT FOR OCTOBER 14-16

Bob Freeman has been surfing Brevard's waves since 1966. — Bob Freeman has been surfing Brevard’s waves since 1966.Waves are not looking very fun this morning. There is plenty of northeasterly groundswell remaining, but onshore winds from passing storms are producing sloppy conditions.

Good Morning, Surfers!

Friday: An incoming Easterly groundswell from Tropical System Karl is producing fun looking waves in the waist- to chest-high range with long, clean lines from a light offshore breeze.

Saturday: Wave heights will remain in the waist- to chest-high range with early offshores lasting through much of the morning. Expect bigger sets during the mid-morning high tide push.

Sunday: I expect waves mostly in the waist-high range with fewer chest-high sets. Light and variable breezes will produce semi-clean surface conditions.

Cocoa Beach ocean temperatures now average 84 degrees.
