SARASOTA, Fla. (WWSB) – Sunday Beach Forecast
Rip Current Risk: LOW. Get to the beach early to beat the heat! Don’t forget sunscreen, and stay hydrated in the heat!
The Suncoast beaches are looking pretty inviting on Sunday, at least from a weather perspective. You’ll have mostly sunny skies and calm conditions to start the day, with light winds becoming west around 5 mph in the morning and increasing to 5 to 10 mph by afternoon. The water will be relatively calm with very small surf—basically 1 foot or less. There’s no thunderstorm threat, so you won’t have to worry about lightning. The big story is the heat. If you’re planning a beach day, get there early, find some shade, and take frequent breaks in the water to cool off. The heat index will be dangerously high, so sunscreen and staying hydrated are essential. Rip current risk is low, so swimming conditions should be safe.
