we thought it would be better than this as hard as the wind blew yesterday. maybe it will be better after the low tide this morning around 10 as the tide starts coming back in. water temp in the low 70's. wind forecast to be south at 10 to 15 mph.

still a decent swell but the wind is not helping it. forecast is for SW wind 15 to 20 mph. low tide around 9 this morning. water temp in the low 70's.

Cape Hatteras, NC:

should be some fun ones out there today. wind forecast to be SW at 5 to 10 mph. water temp in the low 70's.

looks like summer out there with the southwest wind blowing. forecast for SW at 15 to 20 mph. water temp in the low 70's.

pretty much the same size as yesterday but with south wind on it. water temp is in the low 70's. wind forecast is for south wind 10 to 15 mph increasing to 15 to 20 mph this afternoon.

Cape Hatteras, NC:

maybe a touch bigger than yesterday but still longboards only (?) this morning. the water is clear and feels warm to the touch. the gulf stream is just miles off the beach now so hopefully the SE wind forecast today will blow it on in. wind forecast to be light and variable before picking up this afternoon. nice day down here today.

Cape Hatteras, NC:

pretty small out there this morning. wind forecast to be WSW at 5 to 10 mph switching to the NNE this afternoon. water yesterday afternoon was crystal clear and almost up to 70*.

much smaller than yesterday. wind forecast to be west today at 10 to 15 mph. water temp slowly creeping towards the upper 60's. high tide around 10 this morning.

Cape Hatteras, NC:

no wind this morning but the surf looks bumpy and disorganized. high tide around 8:15 this morning so maybe an improvement after the tide starts going back out. wind forecast to be SE 10 to 15 mph by this afternoon. water feels about 64'.

Cape Hatteras, NC:

Tide is way to high with the full moon this am. If the wind doesn't kill it should be fun for a bit on the outgoing then the tide will get to low. Wind was just starting to blow out of the SE when I was at the beach.

Cape Hatteras, NC:

Last weeks swell has dug a nice trench down the beach so today has a little swell but as soon as it breaks it reforms, especially on the high tide this am.

Cape Hatteras, NC:

nice swell in the water still but it's really unorganized and sloppy. water temp low 60's. wind forecast to be south at 10 to 15 mph and increasing this afternoon.

Cape Hatteras, NC:

definitely smaller than yesterday and less consistent. pretty nondescript. wind forecast to be south at 10 to 15 mph. water feels a little warmer.....around 64* i'm guessing. low tide around 11 this morning.

Cape Hatteras, NC:

smaller than yesterday afternoon but still a mess. frisco might be a better call today except that the wind is supposed to come up out of the SE but only at 5 to 10 mph. all photos the first jetty except the pier shot.
