...HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK IN EFFECT THROUGH THIS EVENING...
* WHAT...Dangerous rip currents expected.
* WHERE...Kings (Brooklyn), Southwestern Suffolk, Southeastern
Suffolk, Southern Queens and Southern Nassau Counties.
* WHEN...Through this evening.
* IMPACTS...Life-threatening rip currents are likely for all
people entering the surf zone. Anyone visiting the beaches

If you enter the surf zone, always have a flotation device with
you and swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current, relax
and float, and do not swim against the current. If able, swim in
a direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face
the shore and yell or wave for help.
