Rip Current Statement
Issued: 5:14 AM Apr. 6, 2026 – National Weather Service
...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH LATE FRIDAY
NIGHT...

* WHAT...Dangerous rip currents.

* WHERE...Beaches of Volusia, Brevard, Indian River, Saint Lucie,
and Martin Counties.

* WHEN...Through late Friday night.

* IMPACTS...Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away
from shore into deeper water. A High Surf Advisory will likely
be needed beginning Tuesday as surf heights quickly build behind
a front.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Rip currents are powerful channels of water flowing quickly away
from shore, which occur most often at low spots or breaks in the
sandbar and in the vicinity of structures such as jetties and
piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards, beach patrol flags and
signs.

Entering the surf is strongly discouraged. If caught in a rip
current, relax and float. Don't swim against the current. If
able, swim in a direction following the shoreline. If unable to
escape, face the shore and call or wave for help.
