Ocean City NJ Live Beach Cams: Storm Watch
About this camera
Watch Ocean City, New Jersey, right now on this rotating storm-watch stream from ms36K. Its live cameras cover the beaches, the boardwalk, the fishing piers and the bay, and each one appears for 30 seconds in a continuous loop, giving you a full tour of the shore.
The rotation includes the 30th Street beach and surf, the iconic Music Pier, the boardwalk arcades, fishing spots along 14th Street, boat docks on the bay side, and neighborhoods from Gardens Plaza at the north end to 56th Street in the south. That makes it especially useful during storms, when you can follow rain, wind, waves, high tides and flooding across the whole island in a few minutes.
Ocean City sits on a barrier island in Cape May County, founded in 1879 as a Christian seaside resort and still a dry town, which helps give it the nickname America's Greatest Family Resort. Its two-and-a-half-mile boardwalk is lined with amusement piers, pizza, fudge and saltwater taffy shops, and the Music Pier hosts concerts in summer.
Nor'easters in autumn and winter and tropical storms in late summer can push water over the bay-side streets and bring big surf to the beaches. In good weather, the cameras show families, surfers, anglers and boardwalk crowds instead.
