Friday, August 28, is shaping up to be a beautiful day at the Shore, with a unique blend of cool morning temperatures and warm water conditions. The current temperature is 71°F, with a heavy overcast cloud cover and very high humidity, making for muggy conditions. This is a great day to get out and enjoy the beach, whether you're a surfer, swimmer, or just looking to soak up some sun.



The ocean conditions are looking great for surfers, with a surf height of 2.5 feet, which is perfect for longboarders. The water temperature is a warm 74°F, making boardshorts a great choice for today's activities. However, rip current data is unavailable, so it's essential to check with the lifeguard on duty before entering the water. Be sure to check the local tide chart for low and high tide times to plan your day accordingly.



For runners and cyclists, the flat beachfront is an excellent spot for an early morning workout, with light winds of 2mph from the NNE and excellent air quality, with an AQI of 39. The 100% cloud cover means you won't need to worry about UV protection, with a low UV index of 0. Fishing and paddleboarding are also great options for today, with the calm winds and warm water making for ideal conditions. Just be sure to plan your activities around the crowds, as the boardwalk can get congested later in the day.



As we look ahead to the rest of the day, the temperature is expected to rise, but the high temperature is currently unavailable. With no rain expected today or tonight, it's shaping up to be a great day to get out and enjoy the Shore. Whether you're surfing, swimming, or just relaxing on the beach, make the most of this beautiful day and take in all that the Shore has to offer. Have a great day, and we'll see you back here tomorrow with another update.
