Coastal Flood Statement
Statement as of 1:02 PM EST on November 8, 2009


Sustained east winds from 25 to 30 mph across the Atlantic waters
will generate strong and dangerous rip currents along the beaches
of Miami-Dade... Broward... and Palm Beach counties through Monday.
For this reason... swimming is not advised.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A rip current is a 10 to 30 yard wide channel of water that can
pull even a strong swimmer from near or inside The Sand Bar into
deeper water. Due to the life threatening dangers that these
strong currents of water pose... swimming is not advised.

If you do go into the water... swim at guarded beaches and heed
the advice of the beach patrol. If caught in the seaward pull of
a rip current do not attempt to move directly toward shore.
Instead... move sideways across the rip current until the pull
eases.

An alternate method of escape is to let the rip current pull you
seaward 50 to 100 yards... where the force weakens... and then swim
toward the beach at an angle away from the current.





Wind Advisory
Statement as of 6:39 PM EST on November 8, 2009


... Wind Advisory now in effect until 11 am EST Monday...

The Wind Advisory is now in effect until 11 am EST Monday.

Sustained east winds of 25 to at times near 30 mph with gusts of 35
to 40 mph are expected... especially with any shower... along the coastal
sections of Palm Beach... Broward... and Miami-Dade counties
through the night and into late Monday morning.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Wind Advisory means that sustained winds of 30 mph or higher or
frequent gusts of 35 mph or higher are expected. Winds this
strong can make driving difficult... especially for high profile
vehicles. Use extra caution. Make sure to secure loose objects as
they can be blown around by winds this strong.





Forecast as of 1:05 am EST on November 9, 2009

Now
Widely scattered showers will continue to quickly pass westward across the local Atlantic waters and across the Atlantic coastal zone. For now the showers are mainly affecting the Atlantic waters east of Broward and Palm Beach counties. These showers will move westward near 30 mph and produce brief showers with wind gusts to near 40 mph possible. As the Showers Pass across the coastal zone they will begin to dissipate as they move across the peninsula...although a few showers will make it into the western half of South Florida.
