.THE SURF ZONE FORECAST GENERAL OUTLOOK...
Offshore buoys late this morning were reporting a south-southwest wave
direction, with seas of 2 feet, at 4 or 5 seconds. As offshore winds
decrease over the next 24 hours, the trend is enough to cut back the
rip current risk along Emerald Coast beaches to Moderate. A further
decrease in surf heights on Wednesday should be enough to lower the
rip risk at all area beaches into the Moderate category for Wednesday
and Thursday.
Based on communication with area beach officials, the following flags
are flying at area beaches:
Walton........................Yellow
Bay...........................Yellow
State Park Gulf Beaches.......Double Red
West Facing Gulf Beaches......Double Red
South Facing Gulf Beaches.....Red
Franklin......................Red
FLZ108-102030-
