Carolina Coast Weekend Forecast: Thunderstorms, Mild Surf, and High UV Risks Await Beach Goers


Listen Later

Hey beach lovers and water warriors! Get ready for a coastal rollercoaster this weekend along the Carolinas coast.

Saturday's looking like a moody maritime mix with mostly cloudy skies and scattered thunderstorm potential. We're talking moderate storm chances from Wilmington to Myrtle Beach - so keep those beach umbrellas ready for quick cover. Water temperatures are sitting sweet in the lower to mid 80s perfect for swimming but watch those currents.

Surf conditions are generally mild with wave heights ranging from 1 to 3 feet depending on your specific beach zone. Northeast winds around 15 mph will be creating a strong north to south longshore current - translation: swimmers need to stay alert.

Rip current risks are predominantly low today but will bump up to moderate on Sunday. Beach safety pro tip: always swim near a lifeguard and pay attention to local warning flags.

UV index is running high across all beaches so sunscreen is your best friend. Slather up generously and reapply every couple hours. Those mid 80s temperatures mean maximum sun exposure.

Sunday brings a slightly more stable forecast with partly sunny conditions and continued chance of afternoon thunderstorms. Winds will remain consistent and surf heights will maintain similar patterns.

Extended forecast through midweek suggests continued warm temperatures in the mid 80s with periodic shower chances and generally calm surf conditions.

Beach warriors - stay safe, stay hydrated, and enjoy that beautiful Carolina coastline!
