| Fort Pierce Beach Near 10 AM Tuesday Morning from SurfGuru.com. |
I checked the beach cam this morning and saw the beginnings of a small cut.
I visited that spot around 2 PM and this is what I saw.

| Cut that Developed South of Fort Pierce Today as Seen at Around 2 PM. |
You can see how the cut developed. There is a detectorist in the picture. Sorry it is kind of blurry. You can also see his line of holes.
I saw this rooster at the beach today. Don't know why he was there. Maybe escaped a Santeria ritual. I don't have any idea.
I've talked about correlated beaches. When one beach cuts or fills, other similarly situated beaches will do the same thing or at least something similar. From the early morning beach cam view, I saw a cut beginning to form south of Fort Pierce. I thought John Brooks would likely do something similar and did some metal detecting there today.

| Small Interrupted Cuts Running Along John Brooks Beach This Afternoon. |
There were a good number of targets at John Brooks this afternoon. There were some clad coins and some fishhooks, a few iron flakes and a little other junk.
There were targets down near the waterline. Some were pretty deep. I lost the low tide and had to let some of the deeper targets go. They were simply too deep and the water was filling the holes before I could get the items out.
I put in some good practice time with the Manticore. It does a really good job of target ID and shows good depth.
I was disappointed to leave one good sounding deep target without getting it.
I wouldn't be surprised if a small amount cobs were found in the past couple of days, but don't now for sure. I didn't hit any today.

SEVERE GEOMAGNETIC STORM PREDICTED: A CME is approaching Earth, and it could cause a severe (G4-class) geomagnetic storm when it arrives during the early UTC hours of Jan. 20th. For sky watchers in North America, this means the night of Jan. 19-20. Widespread auroras are possible if the storm reaches its predicted peak intensity. Full story @ Spaceweather.com.

Here is the surf chart for the upcoming week.

Looks like we'll have around three to four feet for a few days with just a touch higher towards next week.
Good hunting,
