Episode Synopsis

Surf's up, beach lovers! Buckle up for a scorching day along the Florida Panhandle coastline that's bringing some serious heat and wave action.Southwest winds are cranking up the excitement with a moderate to high rip current risk that'll keep lifeguards on their toes. We're looking at surf heights around 2 feet - perfect for some casual wave riding, but stay alert out there.Speaking of heat, we're talking serious sizzle today. Heat indices are pushing a brutal 106 to 110 degrees, so hydration is your best friend. Sunscreen? More like sun armor. The UV index is extreme, so cover up and seek shade between beach adventures.Water temperatures are hovering in the mid to upper 80s - essentially a warm bath scenario. Mostly sunny skies with a chance of pop-up thunderstorms will keep things interesting. Winds will be dancing southwest at 10 to 15 miles per hour, adding some refreshing breeze to combat the heat.From Sandestin to Panama City Beach and out to Saint Joe and Apalachicola, the coastal zones are all experiencing similar conditions. The Coastal Franklin area is even sporting a high rip current risk this afternoon, so experienced swimmers and surfers will want to exercise extra caution.Pro tip: Check local tide charts. Today's low tide in Panama City hits around 10:18 AM, with a high tide rolling in at 1:23 PM. Sunrise is early at 7 AM, with sunset providing a stunning finale around 8:40 PM.Stay cool, stay safe, and enjoy the epic coastal vibes!For more http://www.quietplease.aiGet the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
