Rip Current Statement — Tinian; Saipan Severity: Moderate. Certainty: Likely. * WHAT...For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 10 to 14 feet in the surf zone. For the High Rip Current Risk, dangerous rip currents. * WHERE...East and south facing reefs of Tinian and Saipan. * WHEN...Until 4 AM ChST Monday. * IMPACTS...Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...As Super Typhoon Champi continues moving away from the Marianas, swells from the southeast have diminished enough for surf to drop below 15 FT and for coastal inundation to no longer be a concern. However, elevated surf and dangerous rip currents will continue along east and south facing reefs through tonight.
