... High surf advisory remains in effect until 4 PM AST Wednesday...
A high surf advisory remains in effect until 4 PM AST Wednesday.
Long period northerly swells will affect the north coast of Puerto Rico... Culebra... Vieques... and the U.S. Virgin Islands today through Wednesday. Swells will peak Wednesday morning and slowly subside thereafter.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
For the Atlantic waters along the north facing beaches
These long period swells will produce large breaking waves of 10 to 15 feet along the local reefs... beaches and Shoals of the local islands Monday through Wednesday. Therefore... a high surf advisory has been issued.
These breaking waves will generate strong and dangerous currents within the surf zone... called rip currents. These narrow outward flowing currents can carry people and animals away from the coast line and out to sea. If you become caught in a rip current... do not panic. Calmly... remain afloat... gather your bearings relative to the beach... and swim parallel to the beach. You will eventually leave the grip of this narrow current... and be able to safely swim to shore.
Local beach goers... and inexperienced surfers and swimmers are urged to stay out of the water until these hazardous surf conditions subside. Persons on the beach should be vigilant for large breaking waves surging upon the shore... which can carry people of all sizes into the ocean. You should avoid being near the shore line and stay off of rock formations.
These surging waves will also create the potential for beach erosion during times of high tide.
The times of the high tide for the following locations are:
San Juan harbor: 1.9 feet at 2:43 PM this afternoon. 1.2 feet at 2:50 am on Tuesday.
Magens Bay St thomas:1.7 feet at 3:09 PM AST this afternoon. 0.8 feet at 2:52 PM on Tuesday.
Christiansted St croix: 1.0 feet at 1:06 PM AST this afternoon. 1.0 feet at 12:59 PM on Tuesday.
Stay tuned for any additional statements or possible watches or warnings from your National Weather Service forecast office in San Juan.
