...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 AM AST
WEDNESDAY...
...HIGH SURF ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 AM AST
WEDNESDAY...
...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON...
* WHAT...For the Coastal Flood, significant coastal flooding,
particularly through Tuesday evening. For the High Surf
Advisory, large breaking waves of 10 to 17 feet tonight, and
between 15 to 20 feet Tuesday. For the High Rip Current Risk,
life- threatening rip currents.
* WHERE....Beaches of western to northeastern Puerto Rico,
Culebra, St. Thomas, and St. John. The most vulnerable areas
for high surf and beach erosion include Pinones along road
187, Parcelas Suarez, Villas del Mar, and Villa Cristiana in
Loiza; Fortuna in Luquillo; Pueblo and Tamarindo in Aguadilla;
Barrio Obrero, Pueblo and Jarealito in Arecibo; La Boca in
Barceloneta; Machuca in Manati; Puerto Nuevo in Vega Baja;
Ocean Park in San Juan; and Barrio Espinal in Aguada.
* WHEN...For the High Surf Advisory, through 6 AM AST Wednesday
morning. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, through 6 AM AST
Wednesday. For the High Rip Current Risk, through Wednesday
afternoon.
* IMPACTS...Rip currents that can sweep even the best swimmers
away from shore into deeper water where it becomes difficult
to return to safety. High waves that can wash over jetties and
sweep people and pets onto jagged rocks. Rough surf may also
knock you down. Large breaking waves will result in moderate
to significant beach erosion and considerable erosion of dune
structures. Coastal flooding of vulnerable areas will result
in an elevated threat of property and structural damage near
the waterfront and shoreline, with a higher threat near the
time of high tide. Lives may be at risk for people who put
themselves in harm`s way.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A large, long-period northwest to
northerly swell will gradually spread across the Atlantic
waters and passages through midweek. Seas are expected to
build rapidly up to 12 feet, and occasionally higher from late
this afternoon through Tuesday. This swell is forecast to
cause large breaking wave action along the west to northeast
beaches of Puerto Rico, from Rincon to Fajardo, Culebra, and
the northern USVI. Swell decay from offshore buoys and model
adjustment due to underestimation of seas, suggest surf
heights between 15 and 20 feet during the peak of the event. A
High Surf Warning and a Coastal Flood Warning could be issued
later today if buoy observations continue to support this
significant swell event.
* The next high tides are expected as follows: In San Juan, 1.01
feet at 9:16 PM AST, and 1.49 feet on Tuesday at 10:29 AM AST;
in Carolina/Loiza, 0.88 feet at 9:43 PM AST, and 1.36 feet on
Tuesday at 10:33 AM AST; in Arecibo, 1.17 feet at 8:58 PM AST,
and 1.80 feet on Tuesday at 9:45 AM AST; in Aguadilla, 0.82
feet at 8:47 PM AST, and 1.36 feet on Tuesday at 9:32 AM AST;
in Mayaguez, 0.98 feet at 9:17 PM AST, and 1.35 feet on
Tuesday at 10:01 AM AST; in Botany Bay, St. Thomas, 0.93 feet
at 9:42 PM AST, and 1.32 feet on Tuesday at 10:16 AM AST.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A High Surf Advisory means that high surf will affect beaches in
the advisory area, producing localized beach erosion and
dangerous swimming conditions.
A Coastal Flood Advisory indicates that onshore winds and tides
will combine to generate flooding of low areas along the shore.
There is a high risk of rip currents.
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 groins, jetties
and piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards, beach patrol flags and
signs.
If you become caught in a rip current, yell for help. Remain
calm, do not exhaust yourself and stay afloat while waiting for
help. If you have to swim out of a rip current, swim parallel to
shore and back toward the beach when possible. Do not attempt to
swim directly against a rip current as you will tire quickly.
