WHAT
For the High Rip Current Risk, dangerous rip currents. For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 4 to 6 feet expected in the surf zone. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, up to one foot of inundation above ground level expected along shorelines and tidal waterways (7.6 to 7.8 feet Mean Lower Low Water at Charleston).
WHERE
Coastal Colleton and Charleston Counties.
WHEN
For the High Rip Current Risk, until 8 PM EDT this evening. For the High Surf Advisory, until 2 PM EDT Wednesday. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, from 3 PM this afternoon to 8 PM EDT this evening.
IMPACTS
This will result in some roads becoming impassable and minor flooding of properties. 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
High tide will occur around 5:28 PM today at Charleston. Saltwater inundation will be possible several hours before and after high tide. Significant beach erosion could also occur, especially around times of high tide.
Recommendations
If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. Visit water.weather.gov for additional water level and flood impact information. Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions. 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.
