Palm Coast, Florida

... High risk of rip currents at area beaches...

Increasing easterly winds of 15 to 25 mph will combine with long
period easterly swells and increasing wind waves to generate
breaker heights of 3 to 5 feet along the northeast Florida
Atlantic coast. The combination of the swells and strong onshore
flow will create a high rip current risk. Rip currents are life-
threatening to anyone entering the surf. Minor beach erosion and
coastal flooding are possible during times of high tide.

The higher than normal risk of rip currents is expected to
continue through Tuesday due to strong onshore winds.

... Lake Wind Advisory in effect from 9 am this morning to 11 PM
EST this evening...

The National Weather Service in Jacksonville has issued a lake
Wind Advisory... which is in effect from 9 am this morning to
11 PM EST this evening.

Winds will blow out of the east at 15 to 20 mph with gusts as high
as 35 mph possible today. Gusts to 30 mph will linger into the
evening hours before diminishing overnight. The windy conditions
will be a response to a tightening gradient between tropical
cyclone Ida in the Gulf of Mexico and strong high pressure to our
north..

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A lake Wind Advisory indicates that winds will cause rough chop
on area lakes. Small boats will be especially prone to capsizing.
