the national weather service in miami has issued a high rip
current risk, which is in effect through this evening.

a hazard to swimmers. heed the advice of lifeguards. swimming

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.
swim near a lifeguard. 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.
