The Jersey Shore Report has ended regular updates for 2024

As the calendar turns over to October and the chilly autumn wind begins to blow, it's time to bid a fond farewell to "beach season" at the Jersey Shore. The weather throughout this summer season was generally hot and dry. But we had plenty of great beach weekends, with calm skies and calm surf conditions.

Summer's warm, sunny weather and refreshing water offer the ultimate escape. As you know, every trip to New Jersey's beaches, every step in the sand, and every breath of salt air is extraordinarily special. Hopefully you have lots of summer memories to carry you through the colder winter months ahead.

Due to decreased demand for ocean and tide information during the off-season, the time has come to dedicate our resources elsewhere and put the Shore Report on hiatus. It is scheduled to return on or about Friday May 16, 2025.

If a significant coastal storm (such as a hurricane or nor'easter) threatens the Jersey Shore, we will post special reports as needed. (Be sure to follow my weather blog for daily weather updates throughout the entire year.)

Extra special thanks to Dan Alexander for his assistance in posting the daily beach report, complete with pictures and up-to-date info. I truly could not do it without him!

See you next Summer!
