...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT... * WHAT...Dangerous rip currents. * WHERE...East facing reefs of the Marianas. * WHEN...Through late Wednesday night. * IMPACTS...Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Elevated easterly trade swell is expected to persist through midweek, maintaining a high risk of rip currents along east facing reefs of the Marianas through Wednesday night. Swell and associated surf is expected to diminish through the second half of the week, which may allow the high rip current risk to fall to moderate come Thursday. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... 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. &&
