..ROUGH SURF AND MINOR BEACH EROSION LIKELY THIS EVENING
AND TONIGHT...
..HIGH RISK OF DANGEROUS RIP CURRENTS TODAY THROUGH THIS
EVENING...

LOW PRESSURE OFFSHORE OF THE SOUTHEAST ATLANTIC COAST WILL
COMBINE WITH HIGH PRESSURE NORTH OF THE AREA TO
PRODUCE STRONG NORTH NORTHEAST WINDS. THE STRONG ONSHORE FLOW FOR
SAINT JOHNS AND FLAGLER COUNTIES WILL BE PERSISTENT THROUGH THIS
EVENING.

THIS WILL ALLOW SURF TO CONTINUE ALONG AREA BEACHES IN THE 4 TO 6
FOOT RANGE INTO THE EVENING HOURS. IN ADDITION TO THE ROUGH
SURF...THE RIP CURRENT RISK WILL BE HIGH AND BEACH GOERS ARE
REMINDED THAT LARGE BREAKERS CAN KNOCK YOU DOWN AND MAKE YOU
SUSCEPTIBLE TO RIP CURRENTS. STAY OUT OF THE WATER UNTIL
CONDITIONS IMPROVE.

FINALLY...THE INCREASING SWELL CONDITIONS ALONG WITH THE BREAKERS
WILL MAINTAIN THE BEACH EROSION FOR AREAS THAT HAVE ALREADY
EXPERIENCED SIGNIFICANT EROSION THIS PAST YEAR. THE EROSION
CONCERNS WILL BE MAXIMIZED DURING TIMES OF HIGH TIDE WHICH ARE
LISTED BELOW.

NEXT HIGH TIDE TIMES AT SAINT AUGUSTINE...656 THIS EVENING...AND
