Surf's up, beach lovers, and it's time for your coastal condition report! Buckle up for a wild ride along the Carolina coastline.
Mother Nature's brewing some serious wave action today, with high rip current risks lighting up the entire coast. From Surf City to Myrtle Beach, surfers and swimmers need to bring their A-game and serious caution.
North Carolina beaches are looking at a gnarly scene - northeast winds howling around 20 miles per hour, churning up surf heights between 3 to 5 feet. Water temperatures are hovering in the mid-60s, so you'll want that wetsuit. Expect cloudy skies with showers likely making an appearance throughout the day.
The coastal zones from Pender to Brunswick are experiencing strong north to south longshore currents that could turn your beach day into an unexpected adventure. Rip current risks are screaming high, which means if you're not a confident swimmer, think twice before diving in.
South Carolina's coastline isn't much different. Myrtle Beach and surrounding areas are seeing similar conditions - high winds, choppy waters, and rip currents that mean business. North of Myrtle Beach, the risk is moderate, while south of the city, it's a full-blown high-risk scenario.
Looking ahead, Thursday promises slightly calmer waters with surf heights dropping and winds shifting to a more manageable southwest direction. Friday continues the mellow trend, setting up a potentially beautiful weekend with lower rip current risks and sunny skies.
Bottom line: Respect the ocean, know your limits, and when in doubt, stay out. Stay safe, stay smart, and catch those views from the shore if the waves look too wild!
