* WHAT...For the Coastal Flood Warning, significant coastal flooding, particularly through this evening. For the High Surf Warning, large breaking waves of 15 to 20 feet today. For the High Rip Current Risk, life-threatening rip currents. * WHERE....Beaches of western to northeastern Puerto Rico, Culebra, St. Thomas, and St. John. The most vulnerable areas for high surf and beach erosion include Pinones along road 187, Parcelas Suarez, Villas del Mar, and Villa Cristiana in Loiza; Fortuna in Luquillo; Pueblo and Tamarindo in Aguadilla; Barrio Obrero, Pueblo and Jarealito in Arecibo; La Boca in Barceloneta; Machuca in Manati; Puerto Nuevo in Vega Baja; Ocean Park in San Juan; and Barrio Espinal in Aguada. * WHEN...For the High Surf Warning, through 6 AM AST Wednesday morning. For the Coastal Flood Warning, through 6 AM AST Wednesday. For the High Rip Current Risk, through late Wednesday night. * IMPACTS...Rip currents that can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water where it becomes difficult to return to safety. High waves that can wash over jetties and sweep people and pets onto jagged rocks. Rough surf may also knock you down. Large breaking waves will result in moderate to significant beach erosion and considerable erosion of dune structures. Coastal flooding of vulnerable areas will result in an elevated threat of property and structural damage near the waterfront and shoreline, with a higher threat near the time of high tide. Lives may be at risk for people who put themselves in harm's way. * The next high tides are expected as follows: In San Juan, 1.49 feet at 10:29 AM AST and 1.07 feet at 10:13 PM AST; in Carolina/ Loiza, 1.36 feet at 10:33 AM AST and 0.97 feet at 10:36 PM AST; in Arecibo, 1.80 feet at 9:45 AM AST and 1.30 feet at 9:53 PM AST; in Aguadilla, 1.36 feet at 9:32 AM AST and 0.91 feet at 9:38 PM AST; in Mayaguez, 1.35 feet at 10:01 AM AST and 1.03 feet at 10:09 PM AST; in Botany Bay, St. Thomas, 1.32 feet at 10:16 AM AST and 1.03 feet at 10:18 PM AST.

A Coastal Flood Warning means that flooding is occurring or imminent. Coastal residents in the warned area should be alert for rising water, and take appropriate action to protect life and property. A High Surf Warning indicates that dangerous, battering waves will pound the shoreline. This will result in life-threatening conditions. There is a high risk of rip currents. Rip currents are powerful channels of water flowing quickly away from shore, which occur most often at low spots or breaks in the sandbar and in the vicinity of structures such as groins, jetties and piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards, beach patrol flags and signs. If you become caught in a rip current, yell for help. Remain calm, do not exhaust yourself and stay afloat while waiting for help. If you have to swim out of a rip current, swim parallel to shore and back toward the beach when possible. Do not attempt to swim directly against a rip current as you will tire quickly.
