... Rough surf at east central Florida beaches...

Strong east winds over the Atlantic waters today will bring rough
and dangerous surf to the beaches. Children should not wade into
the surf due to the strong breaking waves expected.

Wind and ocean conditions will also produce a moderate threat of
rip currents. Only enter the surf near a lifeguard and never
swim alone in the ocean.

Minor beach erosion will be possible around the time of high tide
early this afternoon and again overnight. The time of high tide
will occur between 1245 PM and 145 PM this afternoon and between 1
and 2 am tonight.

Rough surf and pounding waves will affect the beaches. The rough
surf may knock you down and make you susceptible to being caught
in a rip current. Do not venture far into the surf at east central
Florida beaches today.

Lake Wind Advisory
Statement as of 3:55 am EST on November 9, 2009


... Lake Wind Advisory in effect from 9 am this morning to 5 PM
EST this afternoon...

The National Weather Service in Melbourne has issued a lake Wind
Advisory... which is in effect from 9 am this morning to 5 PM EST
this afternoon.

Sustained east winds around 20 mph with numerous gusts between 30
and 35 mph can be expected today across east central Florida.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A lake Wind Advisory is issued when sustained winds are forecast
to reach 20 mph with gusts up to 35 mph. Such strong and gusty
winds will create rough and hazardous boating conditions on area
lakes and the intracoastal waters. This may result in high waves
which may tip or swamp small craft.
