Nassau - Queens County Forecast
Tim Kent •Today
Small SE/ESE swell mix with W trending to SW winds. Loggable and cleanest early.
Dawn to Midday: We have some small but rideable SE/ESE swell out there, but conditions are not ideal this morning. Enough surf for the logs, around knee to maybe thigh high. Semi-clean surf early while winds are fairly light W, but there is a little bit of side bump/wobble on it for most. Still, if you want to surf today, the earlier the better.
Afternoon Outlook: SSW/SW winds build adding more texture to the small surf.
