Nassau - Queens County Forecast
Tim Kent •Today
Loggable thigh high S swell leftovers. Favorable AM conditions. Southerly winds for the afternoon.
Dawn to Midday: We have light offshore WNW winds early this morning, offering mostly clean conditions.

Afternoon Outlook: Southerly winds redevelop for the afternoon, producing deteriorating conditions, and the surf fades.
