By Wednesday and Thursday, we're looking at highs near 79 Fahrenheit with mostly sunny skies and just a slight chance of showers Wednesday. Alright, time for the Weather Playbook! Today I want to talk about rip currents since we've got that statement in effect. Rip currents are these narrow, powerful currents of water flowing away from the beach. They're created when waves pile up water near the shore, and that water has to escape somehow, so it rushes back out through a gap in the sandbar. Now here's the key thing—if you ever get caught in one, don't panic and don't swim against it. Swim parallel to the beach until you escape the current, then swim back to shore at an angle. They're temporary and narrow, so you've got this! Three-day forecast summary: Friday brings mostly sunny skies with a high of 74 Fahrenheit after morning showers clear out. Saturday gets you 77 Fahrenheit and pure sunshine. Sunday wraps things up perfectly with 78 Fahrenheit and clear skies. Perfect beach weather if that rip current calms down!
