Effective: Thu May 21, 2026, 3:51 PM
Expires: Fri May 22, 2026, 5:00 AM

* WHAT...Dangerous rip currents expected. * WHERE...In Delaware, Delaware Beaches.

These cold water temperatures can quickly cause hypothermia and physical incapacitation to anyone suddenly immersed in the water.

Always obey posted Beach Flags. If you enter the surf zone, always have a floatation device with you and swim near a lifeguard if possible. If caught in a rip current, relax and float and do not swim against the current. If able, swim parallel to the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the shore and call or wave for help.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
