Surf Report - Wilmington NC
Good morning beach lovers! Welcome to your Wednesday surf forecast for the North Carolina and South Carolina coast, brought to you by the National Weather Service. Let's start up north in Coastal Pender, where Surf City and Topsail Beach are looking at moderate rip current risk today. We're expecting two to four foot waves with northeast winds around ten to fifteen miles per hour. It's going to be sunny until four o'clock, then partly cloudy for the rest of the evening. Water temps are sitting in the lower seventies, and just a heads up, that UV index is very high, so slather on that sunscreen. High temperature will be in the upper seventies. There's also a moderate north to south longshore current out there, so keep an eye on that. Heading south to Coastal New Hanover, which includes Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, and Kure Beach, things are a bit more serious. We have a high rip current risk in effect from six AM through this evening. Waves are slightly larger here at three to four feet with northeast winds around fifteen miles per hour. It's going to be sunny all day with highs in the upper seventies. There's a strong north to south longshore current happening, so swimmers and surfers need to be especially cautious out there today. Over in Coastal Brunswick, the scene is much calmer. We're looking at low rip current risk with smaller surf. East of Ocean Isle Beach, expect one foot waves, while west of Ocean Isle you might see one to two feet. Northeast winds around ten miles per hour with sunny skies and highs in the upper seventies. The water here is in the mid seventies, nice and comfortable. Moving into South Carolina now, the Myrtle Beach area shows a split forecast. North of Myrtle Beach it's low risk with one to two foot waves, but south of Myrtle Beach you've got moderate rip current risk with two to three foot surf. There's a moderate north to south longshore current in the southern section. Overall highs will be around eighty degrees under sunny skies with northeast winds at ten miles per hour. And finally, down in Coastal Georgetown near Pawleys Island and Murrells Inlet, we have a Beach Hazards Statement in effect along with moderate rip current risk. Waves are pumping at two to four feet with northeast winds around fifteen miles per hour. There's a strong north to south longshore current operating here too. Highs will be in the upper seventies, and it'll be sunny all day. Looking ahead to Thursday, conditions ease up quite a bit. Rip current risk drops to moderate or low across most areas. Surf heights will be generally smaller at two to three feet or less. Winds become lighter, coming from the north in the morning before shifting east in the afternoon. It's going to be another beautiful sunny day with highs in the upper seventies to around eighty. By Friday through Sunday, we're looking at improving conditions overall with low rip current risk dominating the forecast. The UV index will remain very high throughout this period, so don't forget that sunscreen. Temps gradually climb into the lower to mid eighties, and we'll see mostly sunny skies. Winds remain light out of the southwest. So whether you're planning a beach day or heading out for some water sports, keep those rip currents in mind, especially today in the New Hanover area and Georgetown. Stay safe out there!
