Surf's not up, beach lovers! The National Weather Service has officially closed the curtain on this season's surf zone forecasts across North Carolina's coastal regions. From the Northern Outer Banks to Ocracoke Island, and stretching down through Carteret and Onslow County beaches, we're putting our wave reports into winter hibernation.

Don't panic, water enthusiasts! While our detailed surf zone insights are taking a seasonal timeout, you're not completely cut off from marine intelligence. The RDUTIDMHX product remains your lifeline for tide and water temperature insights during these cooler months.

This means farewell for now to our beloved coastal zones - goodbye to the epic swells of Duck, the dramatic breaks near Cape Hatteras, the serene shores of Emerald Isle, and the pristine beaches of Ocracoke. From Rodanthe to Atlantic Beach, our surf forecasting team is signing off until spring 2025.

Consider this your maritime intermission. Use the downtime to wax those boards, check your gear, and dream about the perfect waves waiting just around the seasonal corner. Whether you're a hardcore surfer, casual beach wanderer, or maritime meteorology enthusiast, we'll be back with more wave wisdom when the spring tides roll in.

Stay salty, stay prepared, and keep that ocean spirit burning bright! See you when the swells return.
