Live AI Coastal Briefing
Tuesday, May 26, is looking like a unique day at the coast, with a dense overcast and very high humidity making for muggy conditions. However, we need to lead with the important news that a Tornado Watch is currently active, so everyone should be prepared for potentially severe weather. The temperature is currently sitting at 59°F, which is quite cool for this time of year, and we'll need to keep an eye on the conditions throughout the day.
The ocean and surf conditions are looking pretty good for some water sports, with a surf height of 2.3 feet, which is knee to waist high and perfect for longboarders. Given the water temperature is a chilly 57°F, a 4/3 full wetsuit is strongly recommended for anyone planning to get in the water. As for tides, we recommend checking your local tide chart for the exact times of low and high tide, but with the low rip current risk, standard beach safety applies.
For those looking to get in some exercise, the 4mph wind from the NNW and 100% cloud cover might make for a comfortable run or cycle, and the low UV index means you won't need to worry too much about sun protection. Fishing and paddleboarding could also be good options, given the calm conditions, and with excellent air quality, it's a great day to get outdoors. Just be sure to check the tide times and plan your activities accordingly, and keep an eye on the weather given the Tornado Watch.
As we look ahead to the afternoon and evening, we're not expecting any rain, but the Tornado Watch remains in effect, so it's essential to stay informed and up to date with the latest weather information. We'll be keeping a close eye on the conditions and will provide updates as necessary. For now, it's a good idea to plan your day with the potential for severe weather in mind, and to prioritize your safety above all else. Stay safe, and we'll see you back here tomorrow with another update from the coast.
