...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH LATE TONIGHT...
* WHAT...Dangerous rip currents.
* WHERE...Walton, Bay, and West-facing Gulf County Beaches.
* WHEN...Through late tonight.
* IMPACTS...Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away
from shore into deeper water.
* ADDITIONAL INFORMATION...Onshore flow will become increasingly
brisk today along the Walton, Bay, and West-facing Gulf County
beaches, so the rip current risk will increase through the day.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current, relax and
float. Don`t swim against the current. If able, swim in a
direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the
shore and call or wave for help.
