For the High Rip Current Risk, dangerous rip currents. * WHERE...North facing reefs of the Marianas. * WHEN...For the High Surf Advisory, until 4 AM ChST Monday. For the High Rip Current Risk, through late tonight. * IMPACTS...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...Significant northerly swells generated by distant synoptic systems are producing hazardous surf and a high risk of rip currents along north facing reefs of the Marianas through at least late tonight. Surf is then likely to fall below hazardous levels thereafter as this pulse in northerly swell diminishes, which will also allow rip current risk to drop to moderate along said reefs. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions. 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. && $$ Montvila
