Hey there beachgoers! Welcome to your surf forecast for the sunny shores of the Florida Panhandle brought to you by the National Weather Service in Tallahassee. Get ready for some fun in the sun, but also, we've got a high risk of rip currents sticking around through the weekend. So, remember to swim near those lifeguard towers!

Let's dive into the details:

For South Walton today, expect a high rip current risk with around 4 feet of surf height. The water temperature is a balmy 83 degrees, and it's looking like a stellar day with plenty of sunshine ahead.

Moving on to Coastal Bay, where we're seeing similar conditions - high rip current risk, 4 feet of surf height, and a toasty water temperature of 83 degrees. Don't forget the sunscreen!

And for Coastal Gulf with Saint Joe Beach, it's a similar story - high rip current risk through Sunday night, smaller surf heights around 2-3 feet, and those east winds blowing at 10 to 15 mph. Perfect for some beachcombing and wave-watching.

Remember folks, always swim near a lifeguard, stay hydrated, and keep an eye out for changing weather conditions. It's all about having fun while staying safe out there!
