A HIGH risk of rip currents is expected for all Gulf-facing beaches through at least Sunday. Rip currents can sweep even strong swimmers away from shore. If caught in one, do not swim against it; swim parallel to the shoreline until you escape, then angle toward the beach. If you cannot reach shore, call for help.
This week is Lightning Safety Awareness Week. The best way to minimize your risk of being struck by lighting is to stay informed and plan ahead. When outside, know where your safe place is, so that you can quickly take shelter if a thunderstorm threatens.
