.THE SURF ZONE FORECAST GENERAL OUTLOOK...

Brisk northwest winds are on tap behind a cold front which moved
through Sunday. This will drive surf up to 3 to 5 feet at Bay and
Gulf county beaches such that a high risk of rip currents is expected
here. At the remainder of our local beaches, a moderate risk of rip
currents is expected. Residual elevated surf heights will keep the
high risk of rip currents going Tuesday with improving conditions mid
into late this week.

Based on communication with area beach officials, the following flags
are flying at area beaches:

Walton........................YELLOW
Bay...........................YELLOW
State Park Gulf Beaches.......DOUBLE RED
West Facing Gulf Beaches......DOUBLE RED
South Facing Gulf Beaches.....DOUBLE RED
