Surf's Up, Beach Lovers! Here's your coastal play-by-play for the Jersey Shore and Delaware beaches.
Get ready for a sizzling Thursday with mostly sunny skies and temperatures climbing into the low 80s. The water's looking crisp in the mid to lower 60s - perfect for cooling off. Southwest winds will be dancing at 5 to 10 miles per hour, creating just enough breeze to keep things comfortable.
Surfers and beach bums, don't get too excited about massive waves. We're looking at a modest 1 to 2 foot surf height across all regions. The good news? Rip current risk is low, but always stay alert near jetties and piers.
UV index is cranking up to very high, so sunscreen is your best friend today. Pro tip: reapply every two hours and don't forget those often-missed spots.
Tide times are looking prime. Catch high tide around 8:43 AM in Belmar, 9:13 AM at Barnegat Inlet, 8:59 AM in Atlantic City, 9:33 AM in Cape May, and 9:12 AM at Rehoboth Beach.
Friday's forecast brings a slight mood change. Expect partly sunny to mostly cloudy conditions with a chance of scattered showers. Temperatures will cool down to the low to mid 70s, and winds will shift to the east and southeast.
Water lovers, stay hydrated, respect the ocean, and enjoy your beach day! Catch you on the waves.
