If unable to escape, face the shore and call or wave for help. .WIND AND SEA IMPACT... Small craft should exercise caution this afternoon for increasing east winds and building seas. A Small Craft Advisory will go into effect this evening as winds approach 20 knots and seas build 5 to 7 feet. .RIVER FLOOD IMPACT...
