Today's Surf Has Moderate Risk of Rip Currents

Rough surf off Ocean Grove at daybreak on Tuesday.

The risk of rip currents today is moderate, the National Weather Service (NWS) says in its daily surf and rip current forecast. Surf height is around 3 feet, with swells south 2 to 3 feet. The NWS and water-safety experts recommend asking a lifeguard or other members of the beach patrol about surf conditions before going in the water. You should also swim near a lifeguard, never alone or at night, and have a flotation device with you.
