EDT SATURDAY...
...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 10 PM FRIDAY TO 1 AM EDT
SATURDAY...

* WHAT...For the High Rip Current Risk, a high risk of dangerous
  rip currents. For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves
  of 6 to 10 feet and a high risk of dangerous rip currents. For
  the Coastal Flood Advisory, minor coastal flooding and splash-
  over.

  evening. For the High Surf Advisory, from 6 AM Friday to 8 PM
  EDT Saturday. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, from 10 PM
  Friday to 1 AM EDT Saturday.

* IMPACTS...Flooding of lots, parks, and roads with only
  isolated road closures expected. Dangerous swimming and
  surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip currents
  can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper
  water.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be
closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of
unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone
property.

Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to
dangerous surf conditions.

Large waves can present a danger to people on rocks above the
water.  Stay away from rock outcrops along the shoreline exposed
to ocean waves...as waves can easily sweep people into the cold
ocean water.
