Fall River, MA Daily Water Report — September 3, 2026

Today's conditions in Fall River are encouraging for water enthusiasts, with boating and diving leading the pack. Boating scores an impressive 8.1/10, thanks to calm seas and manageable wind conditions. The wind is blowing at a gentle 5 knots from the east-southeast, with gusts peaking at 12 knots, providing a smooth ride for sailors and paddlers alike. Meanwhile, divers will enjoy excellent conditions with a score of 8.8/10, aided by the stable water temperature of 21°C and minimal wave action. Fishing enthusiasts should aim for the solunar major periods from 4:38 to 6:38 AM and 4:38 to 6:38 PM for the best opportunities, as the fishing score nudges up to 6.9/10. The waning gibbous moon, with 65% illumination, might not be the angler's best friend, but the solunar periods should provide some action. Surfers might find today's 5/10 rating a bit underwhelming, with waves averaging 0.36m at a short period of 3.35 seconds, not quite the stuff of epic rides. However, the tides are favorable for those looking for a gentle paddle or a lazy float, with the highest tide reaching 1.50m at 1:29 PM. In contrast to recent days, today's conditions are slightly less favorable for kayaking and sailing, with scores of 7.8/10 and 5.7/10, respectively. The humidity is a sticky 92%, so be prepared for a bit of a sweat if you're out paddling. The barometer is falling from a high of 1018.8 hPa, hinting at a change in the weather, but nothing too dramatic just yet. Looking ahead, expect a gradual cooling trend with a slight increase in wind by the weekend, but wave heights are forecast to remain small, creating a serene setting. If you're seeking a memorable moment, aim for a sunset dive when the water is calmest and the sky is painted with the colors of dusk.
