However, rip currents are always possible, especially near jetties and other structures. Always have a flotation device with you in the water. * Moderate Risk - A moderate risk of rip currents implies that individuals planning to enter the surf should check with local beach patrols first. Be sure to swim within sight of a life guard, and never alone or at night. Always have a flotation device with you in the water. * High Risk - A high risk of rip currents means dangerous and potentially life threatening conditions exist for all people entering the surf. People visiting the beaches should stay out of the high surf. $$ MEZ023-210800- Coastal York- Including the beaches of Old Orchard, Fortunes Rock, Wells, Ogunquit, and York 1029 PM EDT Mon May 20 2024 .TUESDAY...
