๐Ÿ—“ OBX Things To-Do: August 10, 2024

As Tropical Storm Debby moves away from the Outer Banks, today's weather in Manteo, NC, remains influenced by the storm, featuring scattered showers and gusty winds.

Expect mostly cloudy skies with periods of rain, particularly in the morning. The National Weather Service has issued a Beach Hazards Statement, cautioning against dangerous rip currents and high surf along the coast.

Today's high will reach around 85ยฐF, with winds from the east at 10 to 15 mph, gusting up to 25 mph. Rainfall could amount to about half an inch, with the potential for heavier downpours in isolated thunderstorms later in the day. The evening will bring a slight easing in winds and a decrease in showers, though some rain may linger into the night.

For those planning outdoor activities, particularly near the water, exercise caution and stay informed by texting OBXBEACHCONDITIONS to 77295 for real-time beach and weather updates. Looking ahead, the weather is expected to gradually improve, with fewer showers and warmer temperatures over the weekendโ€‹ (National Weather Service)โ€‹
