Good morning, this is your Monday surf forecast for the North Carolina coast, brought to you by the National Weather Service in Newport and Morehead City.

Starting up north at the Outer Banks from Duck through Nags Head, we're looking at some solid conditions today with surf running five to seven feet. A beach hazards statement is in effect through this evening, and we're calling for a high rip current risk, so swimmers and surfers need to be respectful of the water. The UV index is very high, so get that sunscreen on. Temperatures will reach the upper fifties under cloudy skies until about three in the afternoon, then partly sunny conditions take over. Northeast winds around twenty miles per hour will be pushing the swell throughout the day. Water temps are sitting in the mid-fifties, so a wetsuit might be your friend out there.

Moving down to Hatteras Island, conditions vary quite a bit depending on where you are. North of Cape Hatteras, expect five to seven foot faces with a high rip current risk and that beach hazards statement in effect. South of Cape Hatteras though, things are much gentler with two to three foot surf and a low rip current risk. Mostly cloudy skies, upper fifties, and north winds around twenty miles per hour. Water temperature sits in the lower sixties up there.

Over at Ocracoke Island, we're looking at three to four foot waves with a moderate rip current risk. Another beach hazards statement is active through this evening. It'll be cloudy until about two in the afternoon, then partly sunny. High around sixty degrees. Northeast winds about twenty miles per hour, and that UV index remains very high.

The Cape Lookout area, particularly Core Banks, has a moderate rip current risk with three to five foot surf. Shackleford Banks stays calm at one to two feet with a low rip current risk. Mostly cloudy until four in the afternoon, then mostly sunny. We're looking at highs in the lower sixties with northeast winds around twenty.

Down at West Carteret near Atlantic Beach and Emerald Isle, conditions are pretty mellow with just one to two foot waves and a low rip current risk. Mostly cloudy until two in the afternoon, then mostly sunny. High in the mid-sixties.

And finally, Coastal Onslow including Hammocks Beach and North Topsail Beach shows two to three foot waves with a low rip current risk. Mostly cloudy until one, then mostly sunny. Upper sixties expected.

Now let's look ahead to Tuesday. The swell backs down slightly but rip current risks generally remain elevated in the northern zones. The Outer Banks and Hatteras Island north of Cape Hatteras stay high risk. Ocracoke and Core Banks drop to low and moderate respectively. Everywhere else stays low. Winds lighten up considerably to five to ten knots from the north, and we're looking at mostly sunny skies across the board with temperatures climbing into the mid to upper sixties and even low seventies down south. The UV index stays very high, so continue protecting your ski

Good morning! Here's your Sunday and Monday surf zone forecast for the North Carolina coast brought to you by the National Weather Service.

Starting with the Northern Outer Banks including Duck, Kitty Hawk, and Nags Head, we've got a Beach Hazards Statement in effect through this evening. Today expect moderate rip current risk with waves running three to five feet. It'll be cloudy with showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms. Water temperatures are in the mid-fifties, and winds will pick up from the north, starting around ten miles per hour and increasing to twenty in the afternoon. High temperatures will reach the lower sixties. Come Monday, things get more active with high rip current risk and surf heights increasing to four to six feet. It'll clear up and stay mostly sunny with northeast winds around fifteen miles per hour.

Moving down to Hatteras Island, we're also issuing a Beach Hazards Statement through this evening north of Cape Hatteras. North of the Cape, expect moderate rip currents and three to five foot surf with moderate thunderstorm potential. South of Cape Hatteras, slightly smaller waves around two to four feet with moderate rip current risk as well. Water temps are in the lower sixties. Monday sees a significant rip current upgrade north of the Cape to high risk, with impressive five to seven foot waves building in. South of the Cape stays calmer with four foot waves and low rip current risk.

Ocracoke Island is looking at moderate rip current risk today with two to four foot waves and moderate thunderstorm potential. Water temperatures here are a bit warmer in the mid-sixties, with highs reaching the upper sixties. Monday stays moderate on the rip current risk with three to five foot waves and northeast winds around twenty miles per hour.

For East Carteret, which includes Cape Lookout and Shackleford Banks, Core Banks show moderate rip current risk with two to four foot surf, while Shackleford stays low risk with smaller waves. Moderate thunderstorm potential throughout. Monday, Core Banks jump to five to six foot waves still at moderate rip current risk, while Shackleford Banks remain calmer.

West Carteret beaches around Fort Macon and Emerald Isle are looking pretty mellow today. Low rip current risk, small waves around two feet, and moderate thunderstorm potential. Highs in the upper sixties. Monday stays calm with similar conditions and no thunderstorm threat.

And finally, Coastal Onslow including North Topsail Beach also shows low rip current risk today with small waves and moderate thunderstorm potential. Monday looks pleasant with two to three foot waves, low rip current risk, and mostly sunny skies.

Bottom line: If you're heading to the Northern Outer Banks or Hatteras Island, pay close attention to that rip current risk, especially Monday. The southern beaches are looking much more relaxed. Either way, beautiful clearing is expected for both days with improving conditions. Get out there and enjoy it!

# Northern Outer Banks Surf Report

Alright beach lovers, let's dive into what Mother Ocean has in store for the Northern Outer Banks this weekend.

Today is looking absolutely gorgeous out there. We're talking mostly sunny skies with a high around the mid 70s, which means grab your sunscreen because that UV index is running high. The water's sitting at a chilly mid 50s, so if you're planning to get wet, a wetsuit is definitely your friend. Surf heights are running small at just one to two feet, making for mellow conditions perfect for beginners or anyone just wanting to chill by the shore. Winds are light out of the south at five to ten miles per hour, and rip current risk is low, though remember that life-threatening rip currents can still pop up around groins and jetties. At Duck Pier, low tide hits at 9:37 in the morning with high tide rolling in at 3:54 in the afternoon.

Now here's where things get interesting. Sunday's going to flip the script entirely. We're expecting much more substantial surf with heights climbing to three to six feet, which is a significant jump from today's mellow conditions. The rip current risk cranks up to high, meaning life-threatening rip currents are likely throughout the surf zone, so definitely exercise caution if you're heading out. The weather turns cloudy with showers developing and a chance of thunderstorms popping off. Temperatures will drop a few degrees into the mid 60s. Winds start out of the northwest around ten miles per hour but will increase to around twenty miles per hour during the afternoon. Low tide at Duck Pier shifts to 10:32 in the morning with high tide at 4:53 in the afternoon.

So here's the setup: enjoy today's beautiful conditions while they last, but respect what's coming your way on Sunday. Whether you're a thrill seeker ready for bigger waves or someone who prefers calmer waters, this forecast has something for everyone at different times this weekend.

Good morning, this is your North Carolina surf zone forecast for Friday, April 24th through Saturday. Let's dive into what's happening at your favorite beaches.

Starting with the Northern Outer Banks including Duck, Southern Shores, Kitty Hawk, Kill Devil Hills, and Nags Head, today is looking pretty sweet. We're expecting one to two foot waves with low rip current risk, so you can paddle out with confidence. It's going to be mostly sunny with just a slight chance of showers, and winds will be light out of the west at five to ten miles per hour. Water temps are hanging in the mid-fifties, so a wetsuit is still your friend. The UV index is very high, so don't forget that sunscreen. High temperature today will push into the upper seventies.

Moving down the coast to Hatteras Island, conditions are a bit more interesting. We've got a moderate rip current risk in effect south of Cape Hatteras through this evening, so swimmers and surfers need to be aware of that. North of the cape, rip current risk stays low. Surf will be around two feet north of Cape Hatteras and bumping up to two to three feet south of the cape. Southwest winds around ten to fifteen miles per hour will keep things moving. Water temps here are a bit cooler in the low sixties.

Ocracoke Island is under a moderate rip current risk today as well. You're looking at two to three foot waves with mostly sunny skies and southwest winds around fifteen miles per hour. Water temps in the mid-sixties, so again, bring that wetsuit.

East Carteret, which includes Cape Lookout National Seashore and Shackleford Banks, is also under a moderate rip current risk for both Core Banks and Shackleford Banks today. Two to three foot surf with sunny conditions and southwest winds around fifteen miles per hour. Water temps in the mid-sixties throughout the area.

Over at West Carteret with Fort Macon, Atlantic Beach, Pine Knoll Shores, Salter Path, and Emerald Isle, moderate rip current risk is in effect. Two to three foot waves, sunny skies, and southwest winds around fifteen miles per hour. Slightly warmer here with highs in the upper seventies and water temps in the mid-sixties.

Finally, Coastal Onslow including Hammocks Beach and North Topsail Beach, we've got moderate rip current risk today with two to three foot waves, sunny conditions, and southwest winds ten to fifteen miles per hour. This area is going to be the warmest of the day with highs around eighty degrees.

Now let's look ahead to Saturday. The Northern Outer Banks will see around two foot waves with low rip current risk continuing. It'll be mostly sunny with a slight chance of showers and south winds five to ten miles per hour. Slightly cooler than today with highs in the mid-seventies.

Hatteras Island stays much the same, with low rip current risk north of Cape Hatteras and moderate risk south of the cape. Surf bumps up slightly to two to three feet north of Cape Hatteras and around three feet south of the cape. Southwest winds around t

# Outer Banks Surf Zone Forecast

Good morning! Here's what Mother Ocean has cooking for the North Carolina coast today and tomorrow.

If you're heading to the beach today, you're in for a gorgeous afternoon. We're looking at sunny skies across the entire Outer Banks with light winds and very high UV, so definitely slather on that sunscreen. Surf heights are modest, ranging from one to three feet depending on where you are. The Northern Outer Banks will see one to two footers, while Hatteras Island and points south will see slightly more size, with two to four feet in some spots. Water temperatures are chilly in the upper fifties and mid sixties, so you'll definitely want that wetsuit. Rip current risk is low everywhere today, though as always, be cautious around piers and jetties. It's a beautiful day to be in the water.

Now here's where things get interesting heading into Friday. While the weather stays sunny and pleasant with highs in the mid to upper seventies, we're going to see a significant shift in rip current risk. The Northern Outer Banks and Coastal Onslow will remain at low risk, which is great news. But if you're planning to hit Hatteras Island, things are going to kick up considerably. North of Cape Hatteras, we're upgrading to moderate risk, and south of Cape Hatteras, we're looking at high risk. That means life-threatening rip currents will be likely in that area, so exercise extreme caution or consider staying out of the water.

Ocracoke Island and Shackleford Banks will also see moderate to high risk conditions, respectively. East Carteret's Shackleford Banks specifically will have high risk Friday. West Carteret around Atlantic Beach will see moderate risk. The good news is surf will be building, with most areas seeing three to four footers by Friday afternoon, making for some decent waves if you're experienced and smart about the currents.

Winds Friday shift to southwest around ten to fifteen miles per hour, and we stay sunny all day. So if you're heading out, pick your location carefully based on your skill level and always, always respect those rip currents. Stay safe out there.

Good morning from the National Weather Service in Newport and Morehead City. Here's your surf zone forecast for Thursday and Friday along the North Carolina coast.

Today looks absolutely stellar if you're planning a beach day. We're looking at sunny skies from the Outer Banks all the way down to Coastal Onslow with highs ranging from the low to upper seventies. A very high UV index means you'll definitely want that sunscreen. Surf heights are running small, generally one to three feet depending on where you are, with the slightly larger waves showing up south of Cape Hatteras and around the Ocracoke and Carteret areas. Rip current risk is low across the board today, though remember that life-threatening rip currents can still pop up near groins, jetties, and piers even when the risk is rated low. Water temperatures are sitting in the mid to upper fifties at most beaches, so a wetsuit might still feel pretty good. Winds will be light, mostly out of the west and southwest around ten to fifteen miles per hour.

Now here's where things get interesting for Friday. While we're still expecting sunny skies and no thunderstorm potential, the rip current situation is escalating. This is especially true south of Cape Hatteras and around the southern Carteret beaches where we're expecting high rip current risk. That means life-threatening rip currents will likely be present in the surf zone. North of Cape Hatteras and at Ocracoke Island, we're looking at moderate risk. Even Coastal Onslow and West Carteret are ramping up from low to moderate. If you're heading out Friday, exercise extreme caution and always swim near a lifeguard.

Surf conditions Friday will be a bit more interesting too, with waves building to two to four feet north of Cape Hatteras and three to four feet further south. Coastal Onslow should see two to three foot surf. Winds will remain southwest around ten to fifteen miles per hour, and temperatures will climb to around eighty degrees in some spots. High tide at Atlantic Beach hits at two ten in the afternoon at just over three feet, while Cape Hatteras peaks at two thirty around two point six feet.

The bottom line: Thursday is your safer, smaller wave day. If you're venturing out Friday, pay close attention to those rip current warnings, stay near lifeguards, and always respect the ocean's power.

Good morning, this is your surf zone forecast for the North Carolina coast brought to you by the National Weather Service in Newport and Morehead City.

Let's start up north in the Northern Outer Banks, where conditions are looking pretty sweet today. We're looking at small waves, one to two feet, with low rip current risk. It's going to be sunny with winds out of the southwest around ten miles per hour. High temperatures climbing into the upper seventies. The water is brisk at mid fifty-one degrees, so you'll want to think twice about that spring break water temperature. Thursday brings slightly larger waves around three feet, still low rip current risk, and mostly sunny skies with temperatures holding in the upper seventies.

Moving down to Hatteras Island, things get a bit spicier. We have a Beach Hazards Statement in effect today, particularly south of Cape Hatteras where high rip current risk is expected. North of the Cape, expect moderate rip current risk. Waves are one to two feet north of Cape Hatteras, building to two to three feet south of the Cape. Winds are picking up to fifteen to twenty miles per hour out of the southwest. Thursday looks more energetic with larger swells, two to four feet north of the Cape and around four feet south of it. High rip current risk persists south of Cape Hatteras, so definitely be cautious in that area.

Over at Ocracoke Island, it's a different story altogether. A Beach Hazards Statement is in effect today through this evening with high rip current risk. Waves are running two to three feet with southwest winds fifteen to twenty miles per hour. Thursday brings larger four-foot waves and that high rip current risk continues, so this is definitely not the time to test your rip current swimming skills.

Heading south to East Carteret near Cape Lookout, we've got another Beach Hazards Statement north of Cape Lookout today. Core Banks are looking at high rip current risk with around two-foot waves, while Shackleford Banks shows moderate rip current risk with slightly smaller one to two foot swell. Thursday kicks things up considerably with three to four foot waves on Core Banks and around three feet on Shackleford Banks. By Thursday, both areas transition to high rip current risk, so definitely keep that in mind if you're planning to get wet.

West Carteret beaches including Fort Macon and Atlantic Beach are under a Moderate Rip Current Risk today with one to two foot waves and that very high UV index continuing. Thursday is the day these beaches really come alive with three to four foot waves building in and high rip current risk taking over. Winds stay out of the southwest at fifteen to twenty miles per hour.

Finally, down in Coastal Onslow near North Topsail Beach, we've got moderate rip current risk in effect today with small one to two foot waves. Winds are the lightest along the coast here at ten to fifteen miles per hour. Thursday tells a much bigger story with three to four foot waves and high rip c

Good morning, this is your Outer Banks surf zone forecast for Tuesday, April 14th through Wednesday, April 15th.

Let's start up north at the Northern Outer Banks beaches around Duck and Nags Head. We've got a moderate rip current risk in effect this morning through this evening, so swimmers and waders need to exercise caution. Surf heights are running around two feet under mostly sunny skies. The water is chilly at upper 50s, so a wetsuit wouldn't be a bad idea. Expect light southwest winds around 10 miles per hour with highs in the upper 70s. Wednesday brings calmer conditions with low rip current risk and slightly bigger waves at two to three feet.

Moving south to Hatteras Island, conditions are a bit more intense. We've issued a Beach Hazards Statement as life-threatening rip currents are likely in the surf zone both north and south of Cape Hatteras. Surf heights are two to three feet with that very high UV index, so sunscreen is essential. Southwest winds around 15 miles per hour with highs in the lower 70s. Wednesday's outlook shows rip currents moderating north of the cape but remaining high south of it, with slightly larger waves at three to four feet and stronger winds at 15 to 20 miles per hour.

Down at Ocracoke Island, we're also under a Beach Hazards Statement with high rip current risk continuing through this evening. Two to three foot waves with sunny conditions and water temperatures in the mid 60s. Southwest winds around 15 miles per hour with highs in the lower 70s. Wednesday shows no letup in rip current danger, actually, with waves building to three to four feet.

Over at East Carteret near Cape Lookout, Core Banks face high rip current risk with a Beach Hazards Statement in effect, while Shackleford Banks see moderate risk. Waves range from one to three feet depending on location. Wednesday brings a shift where Shackleford Banks spike to high rip current risk while Core Banks moderate.

West Carteret beaches including Fort Macon and Emerald Isle are under a moderate rip current risk today with one to two foot waves. Water temperatures are in the lower 60s. Wednesday stays moderate with waves building to around three feet.

Finally, Coastal Onslow near Topsail Beach carries moderate rip current risk today with one to two foot surf, but here's the heads up for Wednesday: rip current risk escalates to high with three to four foot waves expected. Highs will reach the upper 70s with continued southwest winds.

Bottom line: Beautiful sunny weather across the entire forecast area, but respect the water. Rip currents are a significant concern, especially south of Cape Hatteras and at Ocracoke. Wednesday brings larger waves and stronger winds, so conditions will be more dynamic. Get your sunscreen on, stay hydrated, and if you're getting in the water, know how to identify and escape a rip current. Stay safe out there.

Good morning, this is your surf zone forecast for the North Carolina coast brought to you by the National Weather Service Newport office.

We're looking at a beautiful Monday ahead with mostly sunny skies and mild temperatures in the mid-seventies. However, beachgoers need to be aware of a moderate rip current risk that will be in effect from 7 AM this morning through this evening, particularly affecting the Northern Outer Banks and Hatteras Island.

Let's break down conditions by region. The Northern Outer Banks from Duck through Nags Head will see three to four foot surf with moderate rip current concerns. Water temperatures are still chilly in the mid-fifties, so a wetsuit is definitely recommended if you're planning to get in the water. Southwest winds at ten to fifteen miles per hour will keep things pleasant on the beach.

Down at Hatteras Island, surf conditions vary slightly depending on where you are. North of Cape Hatteras, expect three to four foot waves with moderate rip currents, while south of the cape you're looking at two to three foot surf. Both areas carry that same moderate rip current risk through this evening.

Ocracoke Island will see two to three foot waves with moderate rip currents today. Water temperatures here are a touch warmer in the mid-sixties, and southwest winds around fifteen miles per hour will provide some nice beach breeze.

Moving south to the Cape Lookout areas, Core Banks will experience two to three foot surf with moderate rip currents, while Shackleford Banks has lower rip current risk with just one to two foot waves. West Carteret and Coastal Onslow both show low rip current risk with small one to two foot surf, making these areas your best bet if you want to avoid strong currents today.

Now here's something important to watch for as we head into Tuesday. While Monday looks relatively tame, Tuesday brings a significant shift. Rip current risk escalates to high across most of the Outer Banks and barrier islands. Hatteras Island, Ocracoke, and Core Banks all jump to high risk status, meaning life-threatening rip currents will likely be present. Even areas with moderate risk today like West Carteret and Coastal Onslow will see conditions worsen.

Tuesday's surf will also pick up noticeably. Expect three to four foot waves along the Northern Outer Banks and Hatteras Island, with some areas seeing up to four feet. Southwest winds increase to fifteen to twenty miles per hour, which will help build that surf. Water temperatures remain in the fifties to mid-sixties.

The UV index remains very high both days, so don't forget your sunscreen regardless of whether you're swimming or just enjoying the beach.

To summarize: Today is your safer option for water activities despite the moderate rip current warnings. Stay away from piers, jetties, and groins where rip currents are most dangerous. If you do get caught in a rip current, remember to swim parallel to shore, not against the current.

Tomorrow brings bigger wa

Good morning, this is your Outer Banks surf forecast for Sunday, April 12th through Monday, April 13th, brought to you by the National Weather Service in Newport.

Let's start up north in the Northern Outer Banks where conditions are shaping up to be quite active. We're tracking a Beach Hazards Statement in effect through this evening due to High Risk rip currents. The surf is running three to five feet with mostly sunny skies and east winds around ten miles per hour. The water temperature is hovering in the lower fifties, so a wetsuit is definitely your friend out there. High temperatures will reach the upper sixties today. Tides at Duck Pier will bottom out at half a foot around ten in the morning and peak at nearly three feet in the late afternoon.

Moving down to Hatteras Island, conditions vary a bit north and south of Cape Hatteras. North of the cape, we've got that same Beach Hazards Statement with High Risk rip currents and three to five foot surf. South of Cape Hatteras, the rip current risk drops to Moderate with two to four foot waves. It'll be sunny throughout the day with east winds ten to fifteen miles per hour. Water temperatures in the mid-fifties and highs near seventy.

Just south of there, Ocracoke Island is looking at Moderate rip current risk with two to four foot surf and mostly sunny conditions. East winds at ten to fifteen miles per hour, highs in the lower seventies, and water temperatures in the upper fifties.

Heading to the Crystal Coast, East Carteret shows some interesting variation. The Core Banks are seeing Moderate rip currents with two to four foot surf, while Shackleford Banks is Low Risk with around one foot of surf. Either way, you're looking at mostly sunny skies, east winds, lower seventies, and some very high UV index values.

West Carteret and Coastal Onslow are both showing calmer conditions. Low rip current risk, one to three foot surf, mostly sunny and pleasant with that same very high UV index. Water temperatures in the lower sixties.

Now let's look ahead to Monday. The pattern stays fairly consistent but with some subtle shifts. Northern Outer Banks maintains High Risk rip currents, though the surf moderates to around three feet. Winds shift to the south at ten to fifteen miles per hour, and we'll be mostly sunny with highs in the mid-seventies.

Hatteras Island keeps the same north-south split. High Risk north of Cape Hatteras with two to four foot surf, Moderate risk to the south with three foot waves. Southwest winds develop at ten to fifteen miles per hour and highs reach the lower seventies.

Ocracoke stays Moderate for rip currents with three foot surf, mostly sunny, south winds, and mid-seventies for highs.

The Crystal Coast continues its gentler pattern on Monday. East Carteret maintains Moderate risk at the Core Banks with three foot surf, while Shackleford Banks stays Low Risk. West Carteret and Coastal Onslow both remain Low Risk with around two foot surf. Skies stay mostly sunny with lig
