Hatteras Island Fishing Report
August 20, 2025
Today was a preview into the real deal. While the ocean overwash has already started, the winds have just begun. So, tomorrow will be interesting to see how everything unfolds. Hopefully Hurricane Erin gives our fragile beachline some grace. Today’s high was 84 while the low was 79 with light to moderate winds. Gusts up to 29mph. Currently it’s 81, feels like 84, with NE winds around 14mph. Gusts around 29mph. Tomorrow is going to bring strong winds with even stronger gusts and the ocean is only going to continue to swell. Instead of trying to predict the storm I’ll refer you to Windy Weather, Willy Weather, and NOAA sites for information.
