...HIGH SURF ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM EDT SATURDAY...
...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING...

The National Weather Service in Miami has issued a High Surf
Advisory, which is in effect until 8 PM EDT Saturday. 

* WAVES AND SURF...Seas building to 10 to 12 feet off the palm
  Beach Coast, with surf heights of 7 to 10 feet possible.

* TIMING...through at least Saturday evening.

* IMPACTS...Life threatening rip currents will pose a hazard to
  swimmers. Heed the advice of lifeguards. Swimming is not
  recommended. Dangerous conditions are expected at and around
  jettys and inlets. Boaters should use extreme caution in these
  areas. 


PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

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 groins, jetties
and piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards, beach patrol flags and
signs.

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.

A High Surf Advisory means that high surf will affect beaches in
the advisory area, producing localized beach erosion and
dangerous swimming conditions.

A sudden onset of rough seas may cause hazardous conditions, which 
may occur suddenly at jettys and inlets. These conditions could 
catch boaters by surprise. Boaters should use caution when 
entering or exiting the inlets and jetty areas.

EVENING...

* WAVES AND SURF...Seas building to 10 to 12 feet off the Palm
  Beach County coast, with surf heights of 7 to 9 feet possible. 

* TIMING...Through Sunday evening.

* IMPACTS...Life threatening rip currents will pose a hazard to

  Minor beach erosion is possible. 

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

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 groins, jetties
and piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards, beach patrol flags and
signs.

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.

A High Surf Advisory means that high surf will affect beaches in
the advisory area, producing localized beach erosion and
dangerous swimming conditions.

...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH MONDAY
EVENING...

* TIMING...Through Monday evening.

* IMPACTS...Life threatening rip currents will pose a hazard to 
  swimmers. 

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

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 groins, jetties
and piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards, beach patrol flags and
signs.

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.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this high surf advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Miami, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this high surf advisory went out at Sep 17, 1:35 PM EDT, 1 hour 51 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Sep 17, 1:35 PM EDT, 1 hour 51 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Miami FL
135 PM EDT Tue Sep 17 2019

.AVIATION...
Dry, VFR conditions will continue through the TAF cycle. A few,
weak showers possible across the east coast late this afternoon.
However, given lack of coverage expected, left out mention. Winds
will gradually become NE this afternoon, with the exception of a
N/NW sea breeze developing over KAPF. Prevailing flow should
remain fairly breezy overnight with occasional gusts possible
tomorrow.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 954 AM EDT Tue Sep 17 2019/

UPDATE...
Another clear sky morning across the South Florida peninsula,
with drier air advecting southwards on satellite derived PWATs
behind Hurricane Humberto's circulation. This drier air is well
noted in the 12Z MIA sounding, along with a PWAT value of 1.48
inches sampled. Compared to previous days' above normal readings,
this value reflects a much different departure from sounding
climatology, which is now below the 25th percentile for this time
of year. Therefore, only a slight change of showers with a rumble
of thunder or two possible, mainly for the east coast and Atlantic
waters.

Those with beach or boating plans should exercise caution as
there is a High Risk of Rip Currents for all Atlantic beaches and
a Small Craft Advisory for the Atlantic waters. As we continue
through the day, a growing concern along the Palm Beach coast is
the increasing swells, wave heights, and period, which may need a
High Surf Advisory tonight or tomorrow.

Otherwise, the remainder of the forecast looks good and only minor
changes were needed at this time.

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 343 AM EDT Tue Sep 17 2019/

DISCUSSION...

Today and Tonight...

N-NW flow will prevail aloft as South Florida is located between
upper ridging over the southern Gulf of Mexico and residual
troughing in the wake of Hurricane Humberto over the western
Atlantic. Mid-level subsidence wrapping around the back side of the
tropical system will push south into our area this morning and will
remain in place through the short-term period. This will serve as a
limiting factor for shower and thunderstorm development today,
although can't rule out a low end chance over eastern portions of
our area as northeast low-level winds associated with the Atlantic
sea breeze allow for some localized convergence leading to possible
development around the east coast metro areas during the afternoon
and evening. With the easterly wind component, the east coast
metro areas will be a bit cooler than on Monday, but all portions
of our area (away from the immediate coasts) should once again
top out in the 90s. The somewhat drier air should allow interior
lows to dip into the lower to mid 70s, with readings closer to 80
along the Atlantic coast.

Wednesday and Thursday...

The pressure gradient will strengthen in response to the departing
Humberto along with high pressure building down the lee side of the
Appalachians into northern Florida. This will result in a breezy
period for South Florida with gusty conditions likely at times along
the Atlantic coastal interface. Drier air will persist in the mid
levels with shower and thunderstorm coverage remaining limited.
Given the prevailing northeast flow the best afternoon/evening
chances will be along the Gulf Coast region. Temperatures should
remain seasonal, with the warmest readings over interior southwest
Florida.

Friday through Monday...

Look for an easterly low-level wind pattern to become established as
low-level ridging expands to our north and a low pressure trough
advances into our area from the east. This will bring an increase
in deep layer moisture across South Florida into the weekend with
greater shower and thunderstorm coverage anticipated. Given the
flow regime, interior and west coast locations will be most favored
for afternoon/evening thunderstorm development. Temperatures should
remain seasonal.

MARINE...

A northeast swell from Hurricane Humberto will gradually increase
through the week. This combined with increasing northeast to east
winds will result in hazardous winds and seas for small craft,
particularly in the Gulf Stream. A Small Craft Advisory remains in
effect through Friday for the Atlantic waters. High surf is a
potential concern along the Palm Beach County coast as well, and a
High Surf Advisory may be needed for this area by mid to late
week.

BEACH FORECAST...

An elevated rip current risk will exist for the Atlantic beaches
through the remainder of this week given increasing onshore winds
and building swell. Swimmers and others in the water should exercise
caution, swim near a lifeguard, and follow the directions of public
safety officials.

Isolated to scattered thunderstorms will be possible each afternoon.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not expected.
