Davis Beach, FL Weather Warnings

Rip Current Statement issued June 18 at 3:19AM EDT until June 21 at 5:00AM EDT by NWS Tallahassee FL * WHAT...Dangerous rip currents expected. * WHERE...Walton, Bay, Gulf, and Franklin County Beaches. * WHEN...Through late Thursday night. * IMPACTS...Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Several days of strong easterly breezes are now underway across the eastern Gulf. In response, the buoy located about 90 miles south of Apalachicola was observing 8-foot seas early this morning. These conditions will confidently support a high risk of rip currents through at least Thursday and likely into Friday, when the easterly breezes will start to decrease. 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.
