Pulled live from the National Weather Service each time this page loads, and shown as issued — we don't rewrite or interpret them. For evacuation orders and non-weather emergencies, go straight to the county sources below.
Weather
Right now, up and down the coast.
Loading current weather…
Source: National Weather Service (api.weather.gov). Coastal fog and microclimates mean conditions can vary block to block — this is a general read, not a substitute for checking before you head out.
Tides
Next high and low tides.
Loading tide predictions…
Source: NOAA Tides & Currents. Predictions, not real-time observations — for anything safety-related (fishing, tidepooling, beach access), double-check with NOAA directly.
Surf & Sea
Wave height and water temperature.
Loading buoy readings…
Live readings from NOAA National Data Buoy Center stations offshore. Buoys sit miles out and report intermittently, so treat this as open-ocean conditions rather than what you'll find at any specific beach — and never as a substitute for looking at the water yourself.
Roads & Emergency
Official sources, direct — not summarized.
🚧 Road Conditions
Highway 1 closures, slides, and construction delays.
🔥 Fire & Emergency
We link straight to the agencies responsible — we don't summarize or interpret emergency information ourselves.
