Answer
Coastal wind, fog, and thunderstorms can scrub or delay routines for safety. Follow official show and Town channels for same-day updates instead of waiting on packed sand in lightning risk. Have an indoor backup—museum time, outlets, or a bayside meal—so one weather call does not ruin the trip.
