.THE SURF ZONE FORECAST GENERAL OUTLOOK...

Onshore flow will keep a moderate to high risk for rip currents for
the next several days. For today, the forecast conditions favor a high
risk from State Park beaches of Gulf county westward through the
Walton county beaches due to an expected long period of 7 seconds
coupled with surf heights of 2 to 3 feet and an enhancement of the
local seabreeze this afternoon.
