Exercise extreme caution at sea and along the coastlines tonight

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 27

A fading swell will continue to spread across the local waters resulting in dangerous breaking waves and life-threatening rip currents along the north facing beaches in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.

BRIGHT AND FRESH, WITH A LIGHT TO MODERATE BREEZE — BUT DANGEROUS ON THE BEACH

Cooler temperatures than normal and a light to moderate breeze make today ideal for outdoor activities in Puerto Rico — walking , hiking , exercising or enjoying the landscape

BUT… TODAY is NOT a good beach day.

DANGEROUS BEACH CONDITIONS TODAY due to north tide:

Life-threatening marine currents

Dangerous wave

Dangerous swimming conditions

Coastal erosion spotted

Greater risk on beaches oriented north of Puerto Rico, Culebra and the north of the Virgin Islands.
