* SURF OR RIP CURRENT RISK...High risk of rip currents. In
addition, dangerous shorebreak of 5 feet or greater can cause
neck and spinal injuries...affecting even the most able

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A Beach Hazards Statement is issued when threats such as rip
currents...longshore currents...sneaker waves and other hazards
create life-threatening conditions in the surf zone. Caution
should be used when in or near the water.
Rip currents are powerful channels of water flowing quickly away
from shore...which occur most often at low spots or breaks in the
sandbar and in the vicinity of structures such as jetties and
piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards...beach patrol flags and
signs.
If you become 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.

* TIMING...Through Monday.
* SURF OR RIP CURRENT RISK...High risk of rip currents. In
addition, dangerous shorebreak of 5 feet or greater can cause
neck and spinal injuries...affecting even the most able
swimmers. Shorebreak occurs when waves break directly on the

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A Beach Hazards Statement is issued when threats such as rip
currents...longshore currents...sneaker waves and other hazards
create life-threatening conditions in the surf zone. Caution
should be used when in or near the water.
Rip currents are powerful channels of water flowing quickly away
from shore...which occur most often at low spots or breaks in the
sandbar and in the vicinity of structures such as jetties and
piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards...beach patrol flags and
signs.
If you become 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.

...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 9 PM THIS EVENING TO

* LOCATION...Along the Potomac River
* TIMING...Either side of high tide this evening.
* COASTAL FLOOD IMPACTS...
Shallow flooding is expected in the most vulnerable locations near
the waterfront and shoreline resulting in a low threat of property
damage. Expect up to one foot of water above ground level in low
lying, vulnerable areas. Some roads and low lying property
including parking lots, parks and lawns near the waterfront will
experience shallow flooding.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A Coastal Flood Advisory means that onshore winds...wave action
and/or tides will combine to create flooding of low areas along
the shore...and near tidal rivers and creeks. Be prepared for the
possibility of road closures and minor flooding of properties. If
travel is necessary...do not attempt to drive through water of
unknown depth.
&&
Time of high total tides are approximate to the nearest hour.

Eastern Currituck-Virginia Beach-
755 PM EDT Mon Jul 23 2018
...BEACH HAZARDS STATEMENT NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH TUESDAY
EVENING...
...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING...
* LOCATIONS...Beaches of Virginia Beach and Currituck Outer
Banks.
* TIMING...Through Tuesday.
* SURF OR RIP CURRENT RISK...High risk of rip currents. In
addition, dangerous shorebreak of 4 feet or greater can cause
neck and spinal injuries...affecting even the most able
swimmers. Shorebreak occurs when waves break directly on the
beach potentially causing neck and head injuries.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A Beach Hazards Statement is issued when threats such as rip
currents...longshore currents...sneaker waves and other hazards
create life-threatening conditions in the surf zone. Caution
should be used when in or near the water.
There is a high risk of rip currents.
Rip currents are powerful channels of water flowing quickly away
from shore...which occur most often at low spots or breaks in the
sandbar and in the vicinity of structures such as jetties and
piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards...beach patrol flags and
signs.
If you become 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.

areas. Some roads and low lying property including parking

possibility of road closures and minor flooding of properties. If
travel is necessary...do not attempt to drive through water of
unknown depth.
