AS FOR RIP CURRENTS...RAISED THE THREAT TO MODERATE FOR THE NRN BEACHES (INCLUDING OCEAN CITY MD). LATEST BUOY OBS/ANALYSIS INDICATING 1 TO 2 FT E/SE SWELL AT AROUND 13-14 SECONDS. THIS SWELL COMBINED WITH ONSHORE FLOW/WINDS WILL INCREASE THE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS. HOWEVER WILL MAINTAIN A LOW RISK FOR THE SRN BEACHES (VA BEACH/CURRITUCK) AS WINDS WILL BE PRIMARILY OFFSHORE/SW TODAY AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT...WHICH SHOULD KEEP THE THREAT LEVEL IN THE LOW CATEGORY...ALTHO THE DAY SHIFT WILL NEED TO MONITOR FOR ANY CHANGES. && .CLIMATE...
