...HIGH SURF ADVISORY NOW IN EFFECT UNTIL MIDNIGHT EDT TUESDAY
NIGHT...
...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH TUESDAY
EVENING...

* WHAT...Large breaking waves of 6 to 9 feet in the surf zone,
  dangerous rip currents, and beach erosion. 

* WHERE...Southeastern Suffolk County.

* WHEN...For the High Surf Advisory, until midnight EDT Tuesday 
  night. For the High Rip Current Risk, through Tuesday evening.

* IMPACTS...Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and 
  localized beach erosion.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Life-threatening rip currents are likely for all people entering
the surf zone. Anyone visiting the beaches should stay out of the
surf. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from
shore into deeper water. Inexperienced swimmers should remain out
of the water due to dangerous surf conditions.

Avoid venturing too close to the surf. Large breaking waves can
send rushing water high onto the sand, easily knocking an
individual off their feet and into a turbulent and unrelenting
surf zone. Structures such as piers and jetties will be
particularly treacherous due to unpredictable ocean currents
interacting with these structures.

Breaking waves will result in beach erosion with minor damage 
possible to dune structures.
