* WHAT…High risk of rip currents and minor coastal flooding,
mainly during times of high tides expected.
* WHERE…Gulf-facing beaches, including the Matagorda
Peninsula, Brazoria County beaches, Galveston Island and the
Bolivar Peninsula.
* WHEN…Through late Friday night.
* IMPACTS…Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away
from shore into deeper water. Elevated tides could lead to
minor flooding of beaches, lots, parks, and roads with only
isolated road closures possible. This includes the lowest more-
prone spots like HWY 87/124 along the Bolivar Peninsula,
Western Galveston Island, Bluewater Highway and Surfside.
