Rip Current Statement issued December 2 at 3:37PM ChST until December 4 at 5:00AM ChST by NWS Tiyan GU

* WHAT…Dangerous rip currents expected.

* WHERE…East facing reefs of the Marianas.

* WHEN…Through late Tuesday night.

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

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS…Building trade swell from a trade-wind
surge to the east is building surf along east facing reefs,
causing the risk of rip currents to become high. The trade-
wind surge is expected to weaken around midweek, allowing the
trade swell and surf to slowly diminish, and allowing the risk
of rip currents to become moderate.
