...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK IN EFFECT THROUGH LATE TONIGHT...
...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 8 AM EDT THIS
MORNING TO NOON EST SUNDAY...

* WHAT...For the Coastal Flood Advisory, minor coastal flooding
  possible on Friday and Saturday mornings. Moderate coastal
  flooding and minor beach erosion possible on Sunday morning due
  to high astronomical high tides and increasing winds. For the
  High Rip Current Risk, dangerous rip currents and rough surf 
  expected.

* WHERE...Coastal Volusia, Northern and Southern Brevard, Indian 
  River, St. Lucie, and Martin.

* WHEN...For the Coastal Flood Advisory, from 8 AM EDT this 
  morning to noon EST Sunday. For the High Rip Current Risk, 
  through late tonight.

* IMPACTS...Some flooding of low-lying lots, parks and roadways 
  may occur near the shoreline. Only isolated road closures are 
  expected. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away 
  from shore into deeper water.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Timing of the highest tides along the east
  central Florida coast are as follows: Today from 830 to 930 am,
  Saturday November 6 from 930 to 10 am and Sunday November 7

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Onshore winds and above normal tides will combine to generate
flooding of low areas along the shore. Do not drive around
barricades or through water of unknown depth. Take the necessary
actions to protect flood-prone property.

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

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