.Rip Current Risk Category...
* Low Risk - The risk for rip currents is low, however,
life-threatening rip currents often occur in the vicinity of the
South Padre Island jetty. Remember to swim near a lifeguard.

* Moderate Risk - Life-threatening rip currents are possible in
the surf zone. Remember to swim near a lifeguard and with a
non-inflatable flotation device, such as a life jacket or boogie
board.

* High Risk - Life-threatening rip currents are likely in the
surf zone. A high risk means that surf zone conditions are
dangerous for all swimmers.
