Surf's up, coastal adventurers! The Pacific Northwest is serving up some serious wave action this Friday and Saturday.
Calling all wave riders from Long Beach to Lincoln City - expect a solid 5 to 8 foot northwest swell today with 6 foot waves rolling in at a 9 second interval. The wind will be cruising from the northwest starting light at 2-5 miles per hour but ramping up to a steady 10 miles per hour by afternoon.
Visibility might be a bit tricky with widespread fog and mostly cloudy conditions hanging around both days. Temperatures will hover around a cool 60 degrees - typical Pacific Northwest beach weather. Pro tip: layer up and bring that waterproof gear.
Tide hunters take note - we've got some impressive vertical movement. Today's high tides will peak around 8.6 feet in the evening, with morning highs around 5.8 to 5.9 feet. Low tides will dip down to less than a foot early morning.
Saturday brings slightly mellower waves dropping to 3-5 feet with a 4 foot northwest swell. The wind will ease back and skies might even break into some partly cloudy moments.
But listen up beach lovers - this isn't just about catching waves. Cold water, sneaker waves, and rip currents are serious business. Those surprise waves can catch even experienced beach-goers off guard. Stay alert, watch the water, and respect the ocean's power.
Sunrise kicks off around 5:45 AM with sunset painting the sky around 9 PM. Your playground awaits - just stay smart and stay safe out there!
