Due to the shape of the coastline, this strong onshore flow at Franklin county beaches will increase surf heights to 2 to 4 feet and cause an increased risk of rip currents. FLZ115-221630- /O.NEW.KTAE.RP.S.0005.190122T0826Z-190123T0300Z/ Coastal Franklin- 326 AM EST Tue Jan 22 2019 ...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK IN EFFECT THROUGH THIS EVENING... The National Weather Service in Tallahassee has issued a High Rip Current Risk, which is in effect through this evening. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... There is a high risk of rip currents.
