.THE SURF ZONE FORECAST GENERAL OUTLOOK...
While a moderate risk of rip currents will be in place today at all
area beaches, the risk is expected to gradually increase by Saturday.
High-end moderate risk today is possible as the sea breeze pushes inland
and enhances onshore flow. By Saturday afternoon, there is moderate
confidence in a high risk of rip currents at the Walton, Bay, South-
facing Gulf County, and Franklin County beaches.
