Rip Current Statement — Guam; Rota; Tinian; Saipan Severity: Moderate. Certainty: Likely. * WHAT...Dangerous rip currents expected. * WHERE...East facing reefs of the Marianas. * WHEN...From Sunday afternoon through Saturday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Long-period east to northeast swell, emanating from distant Typhoon Dolphin, is expected to develop a high risk of rip currents along east-facing reefs of the Marianas beginning Sunday afternoon. As Dolphin passes the far northern CNMI, the long-period swell direction will likely shift north early next week, and then northwest. As it does so, a high risk of rip currents, and hazardous surf, is expected to develop along north, then west facing reefs next week.
