Rip currents can pull swimmers and surfers out to sea. Waves can wash people off beaches and rocks, and capsize small boats nearshore. Pooling of sea water is possible around high tide at beach and harbor areas that is uncommon with normal tidal ranges. Enhanced beach erosion is also possible,” the NWS said. “Remain out of the water due to hazardous swimming conditions, or stay near occupied lifeguard towers.
