351 FZUS52 KTAE 290829 SRFTAE Surf Zone Forecast National Weather Service Tallahassee FL 429 AM EDT Sat Jun 29 2024 .THE SURF ZONE FORECAST GENERAL OUTLOOK... Surf heights of around 2 feet are expected at all Panhandle beaches today; however, Franklin county beaches will remain in the 1-2 feet range. This will lead to a high risk for rip currents at Gulf county beaches today. Bay and Walton county beaches will see 2 foot surf heights today; however, the periods will be around 4 seconds, which will keep a moderate threat for rip currents at these county beaches today. A rip current statement could be issued for these counties later in the morning after coordination with local beach officials. The threat for rip currents is expected to dramatically increase starting Sunday as swells from another tropical disturbance currently crossing the Yucatan reaches the beaches. This combined with increasing surf heights to 3-4 feet will lead to a high risk for rip currents at all area beaches.
