Good day, surfers and beachgoers! This is your surf forecast coming at you from the sunny shores of Florida, courtesy of the National Weather Service.

It's time to grab your boards and wax them up, as we've got some exciting (and high-risk) waves heading our way. The rip current risk is set to increase to high levels today due to strong east to southeast winds, resulting in some building surf that will keep things interesting at least until Monday night.

Let's dive into the specifics for our different beach zones:

Starting off with South Walton, expect a high rip current risk continuing through late Monday night. Today, the surf height will be around 4 feet with a water temperature of 74 degrees. The weather will be mostly cloudy, with highs in the mid 70s and southeast winds around 20 mph.

Over in Coastal Bay, including Panama City Beach, get ready for that high rip current risk persisting through Monday night as well. Surf height around 4 feet, water temperature at 74 degrees, and southeast winds around 20 mph. It will be mostly cloudy today, with highs in the upper 70s.

Lastly, for Coastal Gulf, encompassing Saint Joe Beach, we're looking at a high rip current risk until late Monday night. Surf heights around 2 feet on the west-facing beaches and 3 feet on the south-facing beaches. Water temperature at 73 degrees. Expect mostly cloudy skies today with highs in the upper 70s and southeast winds around 20 mph.

Remember, surfers and beachgoers, always keep an eye out for those rip currents as they can be especially dangerous during these conditions. Stay safe, wear sunscreen, and catch some epic waves out there!
