Beach Hazards Statement issued May 20 at 2:39PM EDT until May 21 at 5:00AM EDT by NWS Melbourne FL * WHAT...An increasing, southward-flowing longshore current is expected. * WHERE...The beaches of Volusia, Brevard, Indian River, Saint Lucie and Martin counties. * WHEN...Through late tonight. * IMPACTS...Breezy north winds will produce a strong, southward- flowing longshore current today. This can push swimmers into deeper water unexpectedly, making them more susceptible to dangerous rip currents. 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.
