Sustained east to northeast winds of around 25 mph across the Atlantic waters will generate strong and dangerous rip currents along the beaches of Miami-Dade... Broward... and Palm Beach counties today. For this reason... swimming is not advised. Strong and dangerous rip currents will continue through Monday as easterly winds increase even further.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A rip current is a 10 to 30 yard wide channel of water that can pull even a strong swimmer from near or inside The Sand Bar into deeper water. Due to the life threatening dangers that these strong currents of water pose... swimming is not advised.
If you do go into the water... swim at guarded beaches and heed the advice of the beach patrol. If caught in the seaward pull of a rip current do not attempt to move directly toward shore. Instead... move sideways across the rip current until the pull eases.
An alternate method of escape is to let the rip current pull you seaward 50 to 100 yards... where the force weakens... and then swim toward the beach at an angle away from the current.
