NOAA/NWS Forecast for Branford | Marine Weather Statement

Last updated: June 5, 2026, 6:02 PM

Marine Weather Statement

Marine Weather Statement issued June 5 at 4:53PM EDT by NWS Upton NY

The air temperatures will rise into the 80s to lower 90s across
the Tri-State area Saturday. However, water temperatures in the
ocean and the Long Island Sound will remain mostly in the 50s.

The cold water temperatures can quickly cause hypothermia and
physical incapacitation to anyone suddenly immersed in the water.
When the water temperature is below 60 degrees, the average
submerged person could lose dexterity within minutes and be unable
to accomplish simple tasks. Anyone going out on small boats,
canoes or kayaks should plan accordingly and use extreme caution
to avoid this threat.

Several things to consider...

* Always wear a life jacket.

* Dress for the water temperatures, not air temperatures. Wear cold
water protection, like a wetsuit or drysuit.

* Carry an Emergency Position Indication Radio Device.

* File a float plan with someone you trust.

* Check the latest marine weather forecast, including water
temperatures at www.weather.gov/okx/marine before you go out on
the waters.

Your ability to survive cold water immersion depends on your ability
to stay afloat and stay warm until help arrives.

Branford, Connecticut (Guide)

Branford on Long Island Sound offers excellent fishing for striped bass, bluefish, flounder, tautog and black sea bass from shore piers or small boats with moving tides stirring bait near structure and channels for stronger bites. Check current CT DEEP regulations before heading out.

Public boat ramps at Branford Landing Marina and the nearby Stony Creek area provide convenient launches slips fuel and access to the Sound and Thimble Islands but strong tidal currents require careful planning for safe navigation. Always confirm current marine conditions in the NOAA NWS Forecast section displayed above.

Branford's waterfront and nearby beaches deliver calm sand for family picnics swimming shelling and low tide exploration with scenic views of the Sound and Thimble Islands making it a popular destination for fishing families and shore activities on the Connecticut coast.
