Hey there beachgoers! Grab your boards and wetsuits because we've got the scoop on the surf zone forecast for New York! Let's dive into what the waves have in store for us today.
For Kings (Brooklyn) area, we've got a high rip current risk until 6 PM with around 3 feet surf height. So, be cautious out there! The water temperature is in the upper 60s, but expect cloudy skies and a chance of rain. The winds will be coming from the east at around 15 miles per hour. Don't forget your sunscreen with that low UV index.
Now, heading over to Southern Queens, the story remains the same with high rip currents, 3-feet surf height, and similar weather conditions. Keep an eye out for those east winds at 15 to 20 miles per hour!
Up in Southern Nassau, including Atlantic Beach and Jones Beach, it's a mirror image with a high rip current risk, 3-feet surf height, and upper 60s temperature. Expect similar conditions on Tuesday and Wednesday with highs in the upper 60s and east winds.
Moving on to Southwestern Suffolk, the rip current risk is high, surf height at 3 feet, and cloudy skies with a chance of rain. With upper 60s temperature, watch out for those strong east winds at around 20 mph.

Remember, safety first! If you hit the waves, have a flotation device and swim near a lifeguard. And if caught in a rip current, stay calm, float, and don't fight it. Swim along the shore if possible or signal for help. Hang tight until the forecasts kick back in next year!
