Coastal Ocean County Beach Weather Report For June 10, 2017

The National Weather Service is calling for mostly sunny skies today with highs in the upper 70s.

Not a bad day to head to the beach. But the surf temperature is still a chilly 60 degrees. Winds will be from the southwest at 10 to 15 miles.

There's a moderate risk of rip currents. You should always check with local beach patrols if you're brave enough to go into the water. Always swim within sight of lifeguards and never swim alone or at night. The NWS suggests you bring a flotation device with you in the water.

Waves will be around four feet, with southerly swells of two feet. There is no lightning threat. The ultraviolet index is a 6, which the National Weather Service considers high.
