.DISCUSSION...There will be a moderate risk of rip currents along
east facing reefs through Tuesday. The trade-wind swell will
continue to subside, allowing the surf to fall by another foot. This
will drop the rip current risk to low along all reefs. There will be
a moderate risk of lightning through Wednesday.

* Low Risk of rip currents - Strong currents can still occur near
jetties and reef channels. Always have a flotation device with you
in the water.

Moderate Risk of rip currents - Wave conditions support stronger or
more frequent rip currents. Always have a flotation device with you
in the water.

High Risk of rip currents - Large waves will produce strong rip
currents, especially along narrow reefs and beaches. Rip currents
will be life threatening. If caught in a rip current, swim parallel
to the beach rather than against the current.
