...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 3 PM CDT THIS
AFTERNOON...
...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 PM CDT THIS
EVENING...

* WHAT...For the Coastal Flood Advisory, minor coastal flooding. 
  For the High Rip Current Risk, dangerous rip currents.

* WHERE...Aransas Islands and Calhoun Islands Counties.

* WHEN...For the Coastal Flood Advisory, until 3 PM CDT this 
  afternoon. For the High Rip Current Risk, until 7 PM CDT this 
  evening.

* IMPACTS...Poor driving conditions are expected as water 
  reaches the dunes, mainly near times of high tide. Some beach 
  access roads will be impassable. High water levels will also 
  approach low areas along the intracoastal waterways and bays. 
  Rip currents can sweep even the most experienced swimmers away 
  from shore into deeper water. These rip currents can become 
  life-threatening to anyone entering the surf.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be
closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of
unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone
property.

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.
