High Surf Advisory
Statement as of 2:10 PM AST on November 8, 2009


... High surf advisory in effect from 2 am Monday to 4 PM AST
Wednesday...

The National Weather Service in San Juan has issued a high surf
advisory... which is in effect from 2 am Monday to 4 PM AST
Wednesday.

Moderate to long period northerly swell will begin to affect the
north coast of Puerto Rico... Culebra... Vieques... and the U.S.
Virgin Islands early Monday morning and continue through at least
Wednesday. The swell will begin to produce breakers of 10 feet or
more beginning tomorrow morning. This swell event will peak on
Tuesday and will slowly subside through Wednesday.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

For the Atlantic waters along the north facing beaches

These long period swells will produce large breaking waves of 10
to 15 feet along the local reefs... beaches and Shoals of the local
islands Monday through Wednesday. Therefore... a high surf advisory
has been issued.

These breaking waves will generate strong and dangerous currents
within the surf zone... called rip currents. These narrow outward
flowing currents can carry people and animals away from the coast
line and out to sea. If you become caught in a rip current... do
not panic. Calmly... remain afloat... gather your bearings relative
to the beach... and swim parallel to the beach. You will
eventually leave the grip of this narrow current... and be able
to safely swim to shore.

Local beach goers... and inexperienced surfers and swimmers are
urged to stay out of the water until these hazardous surf conditions
subside. Persons on the beach should be vigilant for large
breaking waves surging upon the shore... which can carry people of
all sizes into the ocean. You should avoid being near the shore
line and stay off of rock formations.

These surging waves will also create the potential for beach
erosion during times of high tide.

The times of the high tide for the following locations are:

San Juan harbor:1.1 feet at 1:29 am... 1.9 feet at 2:43 PM on
Monday.

Magens Bay St thomas:1.7 feet at 3:09 PM on Monday.

Christiansted St croix: 1.0 feet at 1:06 PM on Monday.

Stay tuned for any additional statements or possible watches or
warnings from your National Weather Service forecast office in
San Juan.
