* WHAT...Life-threatening rip currents. * WHERE...Beaches of Rincon and Aguada. * WHEN...Through Wednesday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water, where it becomes difficult to return to safety.

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.

* WHAT...Life-threatening rip currents. * WHERE...Beaches of Rincon and Aguada in western Puerto Rico, and beaches of Culebra. In the U.S. Virgin Islands, northern exposed beaches of St. Thomas, and St. John. * WHEN...Through Wednesday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water, where it becomes difficult to return to safety. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A large, long period northwesterly swell will spread across the Atlantic waters between late Sunday and early Monday. Seas are expected to build between 9 and 12 feet across the western and northern coastal waters of Puerto Rico. This swell will cause high surf conditions and isolated coastal flooding. Therefore, Coastal Flood and High Surf Advisories will be issued on Sunday, and are likely to be in effect through at least Tuesday.
