Coastal Flood Statement
Statement as of 5:18 am EST on November 8, 2009


... High risk of rip currents at area beaches today...

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 this afternoon and evening 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.
