    The Storm of the year is Here!

    He he. Get out the 7 and get ready to rock and roll. The wind has hit Cape Town and is gonna be marching up The coast.

    For those who have been sleeping WAKE UP.
    Check out the forecast and HAVE A LOOK AT THE SWELL.

    Gonna be tripping up the coast chasing this baby all the way past J BAY to a great little spot.
    Will keep you updated on the shinanigans.

    Hey Brad

    The boys up here in KZN have been watching this with interest for the past few days - looks like the first proper front that we will get this winter.

    Should be good on Friday in Durban but the fronts hit the South Coast tomorrow, some proper swell for the downwinds - looks like our first taste of winter is on its way - we had 27 deg yesterday !

    This ship nearly came a cropper off the Blouberg beachfront...finally got its engines running just behind backline! Winds gusting up to 66 knots at times.

    Umbrella [um] Re: The Storm of the year is Here!

    Like Shane was saying 66knot gusts accompanied by downpour with rain going SIDEWAYS.

    Gonna be comming your way Bru.
    Batton down the hatches and get ready to put lots of sand all over the beachfront again.

    Should be great left overs for the surf contest thats coming in Ballito too.

    Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of your life.

    Lol
