It's Thursday, April 9, and we're looking at a beautiful day ahead here at the coast. The partly cloudy skies and moderate to high humidity are setting the tone for a great morning, with a temperature of 42°F to start the day. The high pressure system in place is bringing stable and settled conditions, making it a perfect day to get outdoors and enjoy the beach.
The ocean conditions are looking great for beginners, with a surf height of 1.6 feet, making it ankle to knee high. If you're planning to get in the water, make sure to wear a 5/4 full wetsuit with boots, as the water temperature is a chilly 47°F. As for tide times, be sure to check your local tide chart for low and high tide information, to plan your beach activities accordingly.
If you're a runner, cyclist, or paddleboarder, today is a great day to get out and enjoy the coastal scenery, with a gentle 11mph wind blowing from the ESE and plenty of sunshine peeking through the 26% cloud cover.

As we head into the afternoon and evening, the conditions are expected to remain pleasant, with no rain expected and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the beach and outdoor activities.
