...MODERATE RISK FOR RIP CURRENTS TODAY...
...HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES THIS EVENING...

ONSHORE WINDS AND A LONG PERIOD SOUTHEAST SWELL FROM THE REMNANTS
OF FORMER TROPICAL STORM COLIN ARE EXPECTED TO PRODUCE A RISK OF
MODERATE RIP CURRENTS TODAY. A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS
IMPLIES THAT INDIVIDUALS PLANNING TO ENTER THE SURF SHOULD CHECK
WITH LOCAL BEACH PATROLS FIRST. BE SURE TO SWIM WITHIN SIGHT OF A
LIFEGUARD...AND NEVER SWIM ALONE OR AT NIGHT.

WITH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES HIGH BECAUSE OF TODAY/S NEW MOON...A LIGHT
SOUTHEAST TO SOUTH FLOW IS ADDING SLIGHTLY TO THE ALREADY HIGH
TIDES. THIS COULD LEAD TO AREAS OF MINOR TIDAL FLOODING AROUND
THE TIME OF HIGH TIDE THIS EVENING. THE EVENING HIGH TIDE IS THE
HIGHER OF THE TWO DAILY HIGH TIDES AT THIS TIME. HIGH TIDE ALONG
THE NEW JERSEY COAST WILL OCCUR BETWEEN 7:00 PM AND 9:00 PM THIS
EVENING. HIGH TIDE IN THE BACK BAYS OCCURS SLIGHTLY LATER. WHILE
WIDESPREAD FLOODING IS NOT ANTICIPATED...SOME MINOR SPILLOVER MAY
OCCUR IN THE MOST SUSCEPTIBLE AREAS.

IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THESE CONDITIONS COULD OCCUR AT THE HIGH TIDE
AGAIN TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY EVENINGS. ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS WILL
BE ISSUED IF THIS IS EXPECTED.
