Northern Outer Banks Forecast
Tim Kent •Today
Lingering E swell with favorable W becoming SW winds through midday. Fun waist-chest high waves.
Dawn-Midday: Leftover E swell from departing low pressure continues to offer fun surf, in the chest high range for the better breaks this morning. Conditions are clean with W trending to SW winds through midday. Peakier shape than this past Monday, and it is super groomed out and clean. Looks really fun, try to surf.
Afternoon Outlook: Winds look to trend a bit more sideshore S/SSW into the afternoon for increasing side texture. Still manageable, but not as good as the morning.

There is always hope that the next storm moves the replenished beach around and deposits sand in the right places, so it is always worth a check. If you do surf, watch out for the pilings off the end of the pier left by Hurricane Dorian back in 2019. Read more
