...DANGEROUS RIP CURRENTS AND MINOR COASTAL FLOODING...

.Increased swell periods and swell heights will introduce a high
risk for dangerous rip currents through early Sunday morning along
Gulf facing beaches of the Middle Texas Coast. Higher than normal
astronomical tides will result in minor coastal flooding along 
Gulf facing beaches along the Middle Texas Coast around the times 
of high tide. Tide levels are expected to reach or exceed 2 feet 
MSL during high tide, which may cause at least 1 foot of beach 
inundation, and water reaching the dunes. Minor coastal flooding
could continue through early next week.

  anyone entering the surf. Poor driving conditions are expected 
  as water reaches the dunes. Beach access roads become 
  impassable. 

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Coastal Flood Advisory indicates that onshore winds and tides
will combine to generate flooding of low areas along the shore.

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.

...DANGEROUS RIP CURRENTS AND MINOR COASTAL FLOODING...

.The combination of higher swell periods and expected swell 
heights will maintain a high risk of dangerous rip currents 
through early Monday morning along Gulf-facing beaches of the 
Middle Texas Coast. Higher than normal astronomical tides will 
result in coastal flooding during high tide overnight along the 
barrier islands, including along the adjacent bays and 
intracoastal waterways, of the Middle Texas Coast. Tide levels are
expected to exceed 2 feet Mean Sea Level, or at least 1 foot of 
inundation, near the times of high tide. Water is expected to 
reach into the dunes and limit access to beach roads.
