Beautiful Beach Day Off Ramp 55 in Hatteras
Posted in OBX Sports Reports | By Dawn |
You couldn’t ask for much better of a beach day than the gift beach goers were given today. The temperature hovered right around 70-72 degrees with a slight NW breeze for most of the early afternoon. The 10-15 mph NNW winds created the perfect offshore push creating fun, somewhat glassy, waist high waves for surfers south of ramp 55 in Hatteras Village for the early afternoon. Wetsuits are mostly retired as the water temp climbs into the upper 60s. Clouds seem to have rolled in bringing the temperature down slightly and the winds have switched to the east most likely blowing out what waves we had as of the time of this post about 4:30. The beaches were somewhat crowded, but I must wonder a little bit how much of this is based on how many people are here vs. how much of the beach remains open for use.
