Episode Synopsis
Ahoy there, fellow surfers and beach lovers! Welcome to today's surf zone forecast brought to you by the National Weather Service. Let's dive into the groovy waves of the East Coast, starting with Coastal Pender in North Carolina.Today, we're rocking a high rip current risk, so stay safe out there. Surf heights are cruising at 2 to 4 feet with a toasty water temperature in the mid-60s under sunny skies. Hold on to your longboards as southwest winds blow around 15 miles per hour, making those waves rideable but challenging.For tomorrow, the rip current risk downgrades to moderate, but the surf remains consistent at 2 to 3 feet. Expect a mellow day with north winds around 5 mph shifting to the east later on.Moving down the coast to Coastal New Hanover, we're in the high rip current risk zone once again, with similar surf heights and weather conditions as in Pender. It's all about sunny vibes, clear skies, and great waves to catch!And don't forget your SPF because the UV index is on the high side. The weekend outlook shows a drop in rip current risk, so get ready for some smoother surfing sessions ahead.Heading further south to Coastal Brunswick, we're looking at a moderate rip current risk today with similar conditions, including sunny weather and a steady southwest breeze. Expect a mix of 2 to 4 feet waves depending on your location along the coast, with a hint of longshore current to keep things interesting.By Thursday, rip currents ease up a bit, offering lower risks both east and west of Ocean Isle Beach. The surf dials down to 1 to 3 feet, perfect for some laid-back longboarding or boogie boarding adventures.And for our friends in South Carolina at Coastal Horry, the moderate rip current risk continues with waves ranging from 2 to 4 feet up north to 2 to 3 feet down south. The mid-70s temperatures should add a nice touch to your surf session.Lastly, over at Coastal Georgetown, we're looking at a chill 2-foot surf height with a moderate current risk today. Grab your boards and hit the waves under the sunny skies and southwest winds.Remember, safety first, surf second!
