Beach & Coastal Concerns:
A moderate risk of rip currents continues at area ocean beaches through Monday. Dangerous currents can develop even when surf conditions appear relatively calm. Swim only at guarded beaches and follow all lifeguard instructions.
In addition, the combination of a full moon and slightly elevated water levels may produce isolated pockets of minor coastal flooding around evening high tides through Sunday, especially in vulnerable shoreline and back-bay locations. Any flooding should be localized and minor.
Lastly, Monday, June 1 is the first official day of hurricane season. While there are no active tropical storms, it is a good time to review your hurricane plan.
