On Friday at 7:33 p.m. a high surf advisory was released by the National Weather Service valid from Saturday 8 a.m. until Monday 8 p.m. for Coastal Glynn and Coastal Camden.

The NWS informs, “Large breaking waves of 7 – 11 ft feet.”

“Numerous roads may be closed. Low-lying property including homes, businesses, and some critical infrastructure will be inundated. Some shoreline erosion will occur. Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water,” explains the NWS. “Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. If travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions. 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.”
