...HIGH SURF ADVISORY NOW IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM CHST SATURDAY... ...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH SATURDAY AFTERNOON... ...COASTAL FLOOD STATEMENT REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON... * WHAT...Large breaking waves of 9 to 11 feet in the surf zone with dangerous rip currents. Isolated minor coastal flooding. * WHERE...Guam, Rota, Tinian and Saipan. * WHEN...For the High Surf Advisory and High Rip Current Risk, until 6 PM ChST Saturday. For the Coastal Flood Statement, through this afternoon. * IMPACTS...Some water on low lying roads and property. Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...As Tropical Storm Fung-wong continues west-northwest to the southwest of Guam, surf conditions will remain hazardous along south facing reefs, but fall just below hazardous levels of 12 feet for east facing reefs, then likely deteriorate along west-facing reefs as 32W strengthens well west of the Marianas. This, coupled with elevated high tides and wind-driven waves from Fung-wong, may produce minor beach erosion along these reefs. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Rip currents will be life threatening. 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. Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions. &&
