.Outlook (Days 3-5)...
Dry with moderate to strong offshore flow Sunday, in response to a
cold front. Weak to moderate northeast flow Sunday evening, then
increasing onshore flow and moisture Monday and Tuesday, as surface
high pressure moves east across the Western Gulf of Mexico and as
surface low pressure deepens over the Southern Plains.
* A low risk of rip currents means that any rip currents that do
form are likely to be weak but still may pose a danger to poor
swimmers. Research has shown rip currents are typically more
frequent in the vicinity of jetties, inlets, and piers and
these can be quite strong on days where the overall rip current
threat is low...especially if strong southerly of northeasterly
winds exist.
* Swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current, remain calm.
Don't fight the current. Swim in a direction following the
shoreline. If unable to escape, face the shore and call or
wave for help. If tired, float or tread water until out of
the rip current.
* Wave height and period forecasts are representative of deep ocean
waves over the offshore waters, not surf conditions.
