HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS AT AREA BEACHES...
INCREASING EASTERLY WINDS OF 15 TO 25 MPH WILL COMBINE WITH LONG
PERIOD EASTERLY SWELLS AND INCREASING WIND WAVES TO GENERATE
BREAKER HEIGHTS OF 3 TO 5 FEET ALONG THE NORTHEAST FLORIDA
ATLANTIC COAST. THE COMBINATION OF THE SWELLS AND STRONG ONSHORE
FLOW WILL CREATE A HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK. RIP CURRENTS ARE LIFE-
THREATENING TO ANYONE ENTERING THE SURF. MINOR BEACH EROSION AND
COASTAL FLOODING ARE POSSIBLE DURING TIMES OF HIGH TIDE.
THE HIGHER THAN NORMAL RISK OF RIP CURRENTS IS EXPECTED TO
CONTINUE THROUGH TUESDAY DUE TO STRONG ONSHORE WINDS.
