The 2007 Humboldt Bay Maritime Expo was held on Woodley Island in
Eureka. Thousands of locals and visitors came out for a day of
education and fun. The National Weather Service, National Ocean
Service, National Marine Fisheries Service, and Sea Grant all
participated as part of "One NOAA". L-R: Gerry Wheaton, Jeffrey
Lewitsky, Rick Rodgers, Susan Schlosser, and Debbie Richie.

What are rip currents? Rip currents are powerful, channeled currents
of water flowing away from
shore. They typically extend from the shoreline, through the surf
zone, and past the line of breaking
waves. Rip currents can occur at any beach with breaking waves,
including the Great Lakes. Rip
currents can be killers. The United States Lifesaving Association
estimates that the annual number of
deaths due to rip currents on our nation's beaches exceeds 100. Rip
currents account for over 80% of
rescues performed by surf beach lifeguards.

The National Weather Service in Wakefield issues rip current forecasts
as part of the daily surf zone
forecast product (SRF), which is issued twice a day, at 5am EDT and
again at 5pm EDT, between
Memorial Day and Labor Day. Our office coordinates our surf zone
forecasts with the following three
major lifesaving organizations in our county warning area: the Ocean
City Beach Patrol, the Virginia
Beach Lifesaving Service, and Corolla Ocean Rescue. Our forecasters
work together with these
lifesaving partners in order to raise awareness about the dangers of
rip currents. Research is also being
conducted in order to develop and improve the ability to predict the
occurrence and strength of rip
currents. The goal of the awareness campaign and research is to reduce
the number of rip current
related fatalities.

Each day the marine forecaster will assess the threat based on
meteorological conditions such as wind
speed and direction, the magnitude, period and direction of waves and
swell. Once the threat is
assessed, the forecaster will issue a statement describing the threat
level for that day. A three-tiered
structure of low, moderate, high is used to describe the rip current
risk. This outlook is communicated
to lifeguards, emergency management, media and the general public. If
you're headed to the beach
this spring and summer be sure to read our latest surf zone forecast,
and once you arrive at the
beach, always heed the advice and directions of the lifeguards.
