Early this morning, the buoy located about 90 miles south-southeast of Apalachicola was reporting a southwesterly swell of 2 to 3 feet at 6 to 8 seconds. This lingering southwesterly swell will be enough to support a continuation of high rip current risk along the south- and southwest-facing beaches of Walton, Bay, and Gulf Counties through tonight, and possibly for one more day on Friday. The risk will be highest during the onshore seabreeze in the afternoon. Rip risk will decidedly settle down starting Saturday.
