Ortley Beach
Wave height remains at a disappointing 1.9 feet total sea, with a 5-second period groundswell from the southeast. The low and incoming tide is currently around 0.6 foot, which aligns poorly with Ortley Beach's preference for low to mid tides, where the sandbars can create more shape. Cross-shore winds are providing some texture but not enough to clean up the face of the waves. Expect little change in conditions throughout the day as the tide continues its rise.
