Hey there, surfers and beachgoers! Ready to catch some gnarly waves and soak up the sun? Well, grab your boards because we've got the scoop on the surf zone forecast for New York!

First up, for all you beach bums hitting up Kings (Brooklyn) today, brace yourselves for a high rip current risk through Saturday evening. Surf height is around 9 feet, with a chance of thunderstorms and a UV index that's very high! So, slap on that sunscreen and keep an eye on the sky. The surf temperature is in the lower 70s, and the winds are picking up to about 30 mph in the afternoon.

Moving on to Southern Queens with beaches like Jacob Riis Park and Rockaway Beach, the story stays pretty similar. High rip current risk, 9-foot surf height, and a chance of thunderstorms. But hey, Saturday's looking brighter with no thunderstorms in sight and mostly sunny weather.

Now, for our Southern Nassau folks, including Atlantic Beach and Long Beach, expect high rip current risk and 9-foot surf height today. Luckily, the chance of thunderstorms is low. Winds will be breezy, around 20 to 25 mph, so it's kite-flying weather too if you're into that!

Down in Southwestern Suffolk with beaches like Gilgo State Park, there's a high rip current risk and 9-foot surf height. Thunderstorm chances are low, and the surf temp is around 70. So, pack your cooler and get ready for a day of beach fun!

And lastly, Southeastern Suffolk with Smith Point and Cupsogue Beach, high rip current risk at 8-foot surf height today. A chance of showers lingers, but nothing to rain on your beach day parade. Plus, remember your UV protection because that index is very high!

Remember, safety first when hitting the waves. Stay near a lifeguard, keep a flotation device handy, and if you encounter a rip current, go with the flow and signal for help.

Well, surf's up, folks! Get out there and ride those waves while keeping safe and having a blast. This has been a Quiet Please Studios audio creation with the help of AI. Please subscribe and never miss a Swell! Thank you for listening.
