TONIGHT

This is a near-perfect weekend for the outdoors. Average temperatures for this time of year are in the low 70s and highs in the mid to upper 80s. We are shifting into the Floridian style of fall.

Temperatures will drop into the low 70s tonight with winds from the north and northeast. Breezy then shifting to calm before midnight. High humidity levels will remain but no rain is possible Saturday evening. Skies will remain clear allowing for a perfect outdoor evening.

RIP CURRENT RISK

Rip current risks remain high for the weekend due to winds from the east and northeast. 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.
