Locally our main impacts will be along our coast/beaches.
Monday we’ll switch things up as the disturbance starts tracking northwest right off the Florida/Georgia coast. This will increase rain chances along coastal southeast Georgia Monday morning with some locations seeing 1-2″ of rainfall.
Our other “impacts” include high rip current risks along the coast due to strong onshore flow and breezy northeast winds. Winds will also be higher along the coast sitting 15-20 mph.
When heading to the beach you’ll want to prepare for rough surf up to 4′ and high rip currents. Just like Saturday the single red flags will be posted along the beach. For your safety it’s best to set up camp near a lifeguard.
