Rip current risk is low across the board, though we do want to remind you that life-threatening rip currents can still pop up around groins, jetties, reefs, and piers, so always stay aware of your surroundings.

The UV index is very high today, so slather on that sunscreen before you head out. Trust us, a sunburn is not the souvenir you want from your beach day.

As for the wind, we're looking at southeast winds this morning around ten miles per hour, becoming southwest in the afternoon. By tonight, things calm down considerably with northwest winds around five miles per hour, shifting to southeast after midnight. There's zero thunderstorm potential, so you won't have to worry about sudden weather surprises interrupting your beach time.

Tonight conditions stay mostly clear to partly cloudy depending on your location, with lows in the mid to upper sixties. It's going to be a beautiful evening if you're planning a sunset walk or an evening stroll along the shore.

Looking ahead to Friday, more of the same great weather continues. Sunny skies, highs in the lower eighties, surf still at one foot or less, and low rip current risk. South to southeast winds will be light at around five to ten miles per hour, becoming southwest in the afternoon.

Bottom line: whether you're hitting Clearwater Beach, Siesta Key, Sanibel, or any of the beautiful beaches in between, you're in for an absolutely gorgeous couple of days. Get out there and enjoy it.
