Coastal flooding is occurring or imminent. Coastal residents in the warned area should be alert for rising water, and take appropriate action to protect life and property. If travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. High surf will affect the beaches in the advisory area, producing localized beach erosion and dangerous swimming conditions. Swimmers should remain out of the water due to large breaking waves and dangerous surf conditions. 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.

FORECAST & PILOT NOTES · SUPPLEMENTAL

Extended forecast and pilot notes

Current aviation conditions show flight category VFR, wind from 50° at 7 kt, gusting 21 kt, visibility 10 SM, ceiling 3,400 ft. Forecast suggests tonight showers and thunderstorms likely, low near 72F, 65% chance of precipitation. Key risks: thunderstorms in the forecast; strong winds in the forecast. Note: the NWS forecast for now reads "Showers And Thunderstorms Likely" but the current METAR shows none of it; the observation and forecast differ, so trust the METAR for current conditions.

PILOT WEATHER NOTES

Thunderstorms in the forecastWeather.gov

Tonight: Showers And Thunderstorms Likely. Watch for developing convection and plan alternates.

Strong winds in the forecastWeather.gov

Tonight: winds up to 30 kt. Re-check crosswind components closer to departure.
