First off, adrenaline junkies and water warriors, we're looking at a HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK today. That means the surf is gonna be feisty, so bring your A-game and respect the ocean's power. Our waves are rolling in at a solid 3 to 4 feet - perfect for experienced surfers but potentially tricky for casual swimmers.
The weather gods are smiling down with a gloriously sunny day. Temperatures will climb into the upper 70s, and those southeast winds are blowing at a steady 10 to 15 miles per hour. Speaking of sun, pack that sunscreen because the UV index is cranked up to VERY HIGH. Trust me, you do not want to become a human lobster.
Water temps are sitting pretty between 67 and 72 degrees - cool enough to be refreshing but warm enough to keep you comfortable. Pro tip: morning low tides hit around 7:20 to 8:00 AM, with high tides rolling in around 1:15 to 2:00 PM at various beach spots.
For our friends in the Georgia coastal zones, you're looking at slightly mellower conditions with 1 to 2 foot surf today, still rocking a moderate rip current risk. Brunswick and St. Simons Island, you're in for a treat with similar sunny conditions.
Sunday's forecast looks almost identical - moderate rip current risk, 3 to 4 foot waves, and mostly sunny skies. The extended outlook promises partly sunny days with temperatures climbing into the lower 80s.
Bottom line: Stay alert, swim smart, and enjoy that beautiful coastline. Catch you on the waves!
