Live AI Coastal Briefing

It's Tuesday, May 26, and I'm excited to share today's coastal weather forecast with you. We're starting the day with a Tornado Watch in effect, so please make sure to stay informed and up to date with the latest developments. The morning is greeted with a thick layer of clouds, bringing a heavy overcast to our beautiful coastline, with a temperature of 64°F and very high humidity, making it feel quite muggy.



The ocean conditions are looking fun for surfers, with a wave height of 2.4 feet, which is perfect for longboarders, and the water temperature is a cool 60°F, making a 3/2 wetsuit a good choice for those planning to spend time in the water. As for the tides, I recommend checking your local tide chart for the exact times of low and high tide, but overall, the surf conditions are manageable, making it a great day for families to enjoy the beach. The wide and flat beach will also help to dissipate some of the wave energy, making it a more pleasant experience for all.



If you're planning on engaging in some outdoor activities like running, cycling, or paddleboarding, you'll want to take advantage of the calm winds, which are currently blowing at 3mph from the ESE. The cloud cover is heavy, with 100% cloud cover, but the UV index is low, so you won't need to worry about extra protection. With excellent air quality, it's a great day to get out and enjoy the fresh air, whether you're fishing, cycling, or just taking a leisurely walk along the beach. The low wind and calm conditions also make it an ideal day for paddleboarding or kayaking.



As we look ahead to the rest of the day, the forecast is calling for no rain, and the temperature is expected to rise, but we don't have an exact high temperature to share with you just yet. Despite the Tornado Watch, it's still shaping up to be a great day to enjoy the beach and all the activities it has to offer. So, grab your board, your bike, or your fishing gear, and get out there to make the most of this beautiful coastal day - stay safe and have fun.
