Surf Zone Forecast
National Weather Service Tallahassee FL
155 AM EST Sat Nov 15 2025

.THE SURF ZONE FORECAST GENERAL OUTLOOK...

A prevailing southwest wind will make for a moderate risk of rip
currents at all local beaches. An uptick in this onshore flow may
introduce a high risk at St Joseph State Park for 2-ft surf heights on
Sunday. Winds turn offshore out of the north on Monday from a
backdoor front, so expect no more than a moderate risk.
