Rip Current Statement

* WHAT...Dangerous rip currents expected.

* WHERE...East facing reefs of Guam and Rota.

* WHEN...Through Sunday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...An east to northeast swell associated with Typhoon Saudel will bring an increase in surf and produce a high risk of rip currents along the east-facing reefs of Guam and Rota through at least Sunday afternoon. As Saudel moves closer to the far northern Marianas, surf will build along north facing reefs, potentially becoming hazardous later this weekend.
