Monatuk and New York Beaches Surf Report for 02-14-2025
Published 1 year, 2 months ago
Description
Surf's up, beach lovers, but not in the way you might hope! The National Weather Service is sounding the alarm with a high rip current risk that'll keep you out of the water today. From Brooklyn to the Hamptons, we're looking at a gnarly situation along the New York coastline.
Cloudy skies and a chance of rain are setting the mood, with east winds howling between 15 to 20 miles per hour. The surf is running around 3 to 4 feet - tempting, but totally treacherous. Water temperatures are hovering in the upper 60s, but don't even think about dipping a toe in.
Lifeguards are practically begging you to stay on the sand. The rip current risk is so high that entering the water is like playing a dangerous game of oceanside Russian roulette. If you absolutely must get close to the water, keep your feet on the beach and your eyes on the waves.
Low tides are rolling in around midday - Jones Inlet at 11:55, Fire Island at 11:53, and Shinnecock at 12:07. Sunrise was early, sunset comes around 6:40-ish, giving you plenty of daylight to admire the waves from a safe distance.
Pro tip: This forecast is your beach guardian today. The UV index is low, the clouds are thick, and Mother Nature is sending a clear message - beach day? More like beach stay! Grab a book, pack a picnic, but keep out of the surf.
Remember, no selfie is worth risking your life. Stay safe, stay dry, and live to surf another day!
