We're starting off this Labor Day Weekend with a cloudy Friday, and several chances for thunderstorms throughout the weekend. The best chance for storms in our coverage area, including Bradley Beach, Avon, and Ocean Grove, will be anytime between Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon, so check your local forecast before heading out. High tides will be in the early morning and late afternoon this weekend with water temps in the low-70s. Conditions in the ocean are rough today, with some Red Flags up but the rest of the weekend will be mostly calm with waves 2-3' through Monday, but don’t let your guard down! Rip Currents can develop at any time, so all beachgoers are reminded to only enter the water when and where permitted by lifeguards. Never swim when lifeguards are not present, especially after dark.![]()

For those who enjoy sitting, walking, or exercising by the beach or around Shark River, be sure to keep an eye out for any swimmers or boaters who appear to be in distress! If you do see someone in distress, call 9-1-1 and watch them closely until help arrives. Stay safe, and enjoy the long weekend!![]()
