...a moderate risk of rip currents today...
rip current risk: moderate. a moderate risk of rip currents means
wind and/or wave conditions support stronger or more frequent rip
currents. only experienced surf swimmers should enter the water.
if caught in a rip current...swim parallel or at an angle to shore
until you feel the current weakening. once the current
weakens...swim toward shore in a relaxed manner. if lifeguards are
visible...wave your arms and yell for help.
wind: east to southeast 10 to 15 mph.
surf: breakers will average 2 to 3 feet.
water temperature: in the mid 70s.
uv index: 9...in the very high range.
outlook: a moderate risk of rip currents is expected on wednesday
due to lingering east swells and persistent onshore flow.
