IT CAN RAPIDLY CARRY A SWIMMER INTO DEEPER WATER AND EXHAUST AN INDIVIDUAL TRYING TO SWIM AGAINST IT. IF YOU ARE A POOR SWIMMER AND ARE CAUGHT IN A RIP CURRENT...SWIM PARALLEL TO THE BEACH UNTIL OUT OF ITS PULL. ANOTHER MEANS OF ESCAPE FOR THOSE WHO ARE GOOD SWIMMERS IS TO RIDE THE CURRENT OUT BEYOND THE SURF ZONE WHERE THE RIP CURRENT DISSIPATES...THEN SWIM TOWARD SHORE OUTSIDE THE EFFECT OF THE NARROW RIP CURRENT. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SWIM BACK TO SHORE DIRECTLY AGAINST THE CURRENT...IT CAN EXHAUST AND DROWN EVEN THE STRONGEST SWIMMER. HEED THE ADVICE OF THE BEACH PATROL AND SWIM ONLY AT GUARDED BEACHES. WATCH YOUR CHILDREN. BE ESPECIALLY CAUTIOUS NEAR PIERS AND JETTIES WHERE RIP CURRENTS CAN BE ENHANCED. IN ADDITION...VIEWERS OF LARGE SURF SHOULD BE IN SAFE AREAS WELL AWAY FROM POSSIBLE SPLASH OVER. INDIVIDUAL WAVES MAY BE MORE THAN TWICE THE SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT...WHICH CAN SWEEP A PERSON INTO THE WATER FROM WHAT MAY SEEM TO BE A SAFE VIEWING AREA.

Flood Watch
...HEAVY SOAKING RAINS MAY CAUSE FLOODING ACROSS PORTIONS OF MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE OVER THE WEEKEND... .BANDS OF HEAVY RAIN WILL OVERSPREAD MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE TODAY. THE SOAKING RAINS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH SUNDAY. THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE THAT BY THE TIME THE PRECIPITATION WINDS DOWN BY MONDAY MORNING...TWO TO FOUR INCHES OF RAIN ARE LIKELY ACROSS PORTIONS OF MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE. THERE IS ALSO THE POSSIBILITY...ALBEIT LESS CONFIDENCE...THAT THERE WILL BE HIGHER AMOUNTS OF AROUND SIX INCHES IN SOME COMMUNITIES. THIS AMOUNT OF RAIN WOULD CAUSE RAPID RISES ON RIVERS AND STREAMS BEGINNING SATURDAY EVENING AND CONTINUING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. IT IS DIFFICULT AT THIS EARLY STAGE TO DETERMINE EXACTLY WHERE THE HEAVIEST BANDS OF RAINFALL WILL SET UP. AT THIS TIME...IT APPEARS WESTERN MAINE AND EASTERN NEW HAMPSHIRE WILL PICK UP THE HIGHEST RAINFALL TOTALS...BUT THIS MAY CHANGE. LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES OVER THE WEEKEND WHILE A SLOW MOVING FRONT WILL BECOME NEARLY STATIONARY TO OUR SOUTH OVER SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.
