You really want to see ridging in the southeast. But that said, we’ll certainly have some nice days. It’s also part of climo...but the wheel of rhea is possible with that look. Its true I also Would say i really dont envy anything about e mass beaches as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We warm they not growing up on the shore I know their pain, fog rolls in, chill in the air while the interior basks in 70s, or you finally get a nice warm morning then the sea breeze kicks in and drops you into the 50s. On the other hand natures AC when the interior is in the 90s is the best, as long as you live near swimmable water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The near shore temps aren’t bad at all. Best time to go is during a light seabreeze. This brings the warm water near shore and no upwelling. It’s nice to be so close to beaches in the summer. If you want incredibly warm water, go bayside Cape Cod in August. Water was near 80 due to the shallow flats. It didn’t feel right lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I would say this Ginx, you would love Palm beach ocean during hurricane swell w 80 plus water. Was a dream. W Ne angle of swells, you could see them (when first day or so of swell hit) first hitting the sandbars about a mile north then work there way south. Sitting in 6-7 foot water, clear to the bottom amd watching the swells just crush miles of beach and sand bars. Not awful. Also the Isabel slot swell that i saw (lit up 10 miles of palm beach w 15 foot peeling swells) while blocked by bahamas to N and South was unbelievable. There is a study and pdf (article) from that day, perhaps by Miami nws on how only a 105-110 degree angle swell , opens a narrow deep ocean window thru new providence channel and translates from boca to say lake worth. Swell went from 2' to 10-15' in 4 hours. I only mention this b.c i believe you could appreciate the article and imagine being there that day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorEastermass128 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I’m mentally prepared for 48-58F until mid May. Come the HHH days, you inland folks can sit huddled by the AC sweltering during the day while I’m sitting on the beach with a refreshing breeze off the water.

Just the worst. summer of 1976 as part of Quincy Race Week (sailing), a one mile open water swim race was held. We swam from one of the club piers out to a buoy and back. I was in the water less than 20 minutes and came out covered in slime/oil...in hindsight absolutely gross but as a 13 year old thought the fact we could draw happy faces on our stomachs was cool. It was a sewer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Just took at cat ride to the top and there is an obscene amount of ice above 2,500ft. There has to be 2" of pure glaze of everything from ropes to chairlifts and trees. Back over to snow though to the valley floor but not Champlain Valley.

Personally, the nice part about New England in general is that it has a little of everything...shore, inland, Mountains, valleys, cities, Suburbia, country side. It has it all. And every place has it's good and not so good points during each season, depending on ones perspective of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
