Surf's up, coastal adventurers! Our Pacific Northwest surf zone is serving up some serious wave action today. For Long Beach, Washington, and our Oregon coastal hotspots, we're looking at impressive surf heights ranging from 7 to 11 feet with southwest swells packing serious punch at 8 to 9 feet and 11-second intervals.
Temperatures are holding steady around 50 degrees with mostly cloudy skies and a slight chance of showers keeping things interesting. Northwest winds between 4 to 10 miles per hour will be dancing across the coastline, adding some texture to our marine landscape.
Tide enthusiasts get ready - we've got some dramatic vertical movements today. Expect high tides climbing near 10 feet in the early morning and lower tides dipping down to negative 1.4 feet. That's some serious water movement for beach lovers and marine watchers!
But here's your critical safety reminder: these waters are not for the faint of heart. Cold water, sneaker waves, and rip currents are real threats along this rugged coastline. Those seemingly innocent waves can turn deadly in an instant, so stay alert and respectful of the ocean's power.
From Long Beach to Lincoln City, our surf zones are offering a wild maritime experience. Whether you're a hardcore surfer or just a coastal observer, today promises dynamic ocean conditions that demand your full attention and respect.
Sunrise kicks off around 6:50 AM, with sunset painting the sky around 7:45 PM - giving you plenty of daylight to soak in these magnificent coastal views. Stay safe, stay smart, and enjoy the raw beauty of the Pacific Northwest surf zone!
