Surfers and beach lovers, listen up! The waves are calling, and we've got your coastal conditions right here.
Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia are serving up some sweet beach vibes this Thursday. Expect a moderate rip current risk, so stay sharp out there. The surf's looking decent with 2 to 3 foot waves perfect for catching some rides.
The morning starts with south winds around 5 mph, but they'll kick up to a spicier southeast breeze near 15 mph by afternoon. Water temperatures are sitting pretty between 77 and 82 degrees - basically liquid heaven.
UV index is cranking up to very high, so sunscreen is your best friend today. Temperatures will cruise into the upper 80s with a partly sunny backdrop that'll make your Instagram followers green with envy.
Tide schedule highlights include high tides rolling in mid-morning - Jacksonville Beach checks in at 9:21 AM, while Fernandina Beach peaks at 10:19 AM. Perfect timing for those morning surf sessions.
Friday brings a slight change-up with surf dropping to 1 to 2 feet and a moderate chance of thunderstorms. The heat index could climb up to 102, so hydration is key. Winds will shift to a southwest flow before turning southeast in the afternoon.
The weekend outlook keeps things interesting with continued chances of showers and thunderstorms. Surf stays around 1 to 2 feet, temperatures hold steady in the upper 80s, and those southwest winds will keep things breezy.
Bottom line: Pack your sunscreen, stay hydrated, respect the rip currents, and make some epic beach memories. Surf's up!
