A high risk of life-threatening rip currents exists at all central Florida Atlantic beaches. Entering the water is highly discouraged. If caught in a rip current, relax and float. Don`t swim against the current. If able, swim in a direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the shore and call or wave for help. .WIND AND SEA IMPACT... Boating conditions are forecast to deteriorate tonight as a tightening pressure gradient causes increasing northeast winds across the local Atlantic waters. Seas will begin to build to 5 to 7 feet across the offshore waters as a result, with a Small Craft Advisory beginning late tonight. .RIVER FLOOD IMPACT... The Saint Johns River continues a slow decline, remaining around Moderate Flood Stage at Astor and around Minor Flood Stage near Deland. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday. A high risk of rip currents is forecast to continue on Wednesday. Boating conditions will remain poor to hazardous mid to late week, with a Small Craft Advisory in effect through at least Thursday. Residents and interests along the Saint Johns River near Astor will continue to experience Minor to Moderate flood impacts for the foreseeable future. The river at Deland is forecast to fall below flood stage this week. Higher than normal astronomical tides will have the potential to cause minor coastal flooding mid to late week. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation will not be needed today and tonight. $$ Tollefsen
