Beach Hazards Statement issued May 14 at 4:35AM EDT until May 15 at 4:00AM EDT by NWS Melbourne FL * WHAT...A strong, northward-flowing longshore current and a Moderate Risk of rip currents is expected. * WHERE...All Atlantic beaches of East Central Florida, from Volusia to Martin County. * WHEN...Through late tonight. * IMPACTS...Breezy southeast winds will produce a strong, northward-flowing longshore current today. This can push swimmers into deeper water unexpectedly, making them more susceptible to dangerous rip currents. Swim near a lifeguard. 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.
