...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK IS CANCELLED...

Swell has subsided sufficiently to allow surf to fall below 9 feet
along east facing reefs. Therefore, there is no longer a high risk of
rip currents. The risk of rip currents will remain moderate through
the end of the week along east facing reefs. Seas are expected to 
increase again at the end of the week, possibly producing hazardous 
surf along north facing reefs and a high risk of rip currents along 
north and east facing reefs.
