Hey there beachgoers, it's time for your surf forecast brought to you by the National Weather Service in Tallahassee, FL.

Get ready for some rip current excitement because the high rip current risk will be sticking around for a few days. So, keep an eye out and stay safe out there. Onshore winds from the south to southwest at 15 to 20 miles per hour will bring waves around 2 to 3 feet high. Plus, watch out for possible severe weather along the coast with a couple of rounds expected in the next few days.

Let's dive into the details for different beach areas:

Starting off at South Walton, expect a high rip current risk today and tomorrow with surf heights around 3 feet. Enjoy the lower 80s temperature with a chance of showers and thunderstorms.

Over at Coastal Bay, similar conditions with a high rip current risk, 3-foot waves, and a mix of sun, showers, and thunderstorms.

For all you surfers hitting the Coastal Gulf at Saint Joe Beach, hang ten with a high rip current risk. Surf heights varying between 2 to 4 feet, and some sunny breaks in between the showers and possible thunderstorms.

And lastly, for Coastal Franklin at Apalachicola, watch out for those rip currents with 2-foot waves and partly sunny skies today.

As the weekend rolls in, the rip current risk remains high on Saturday and Sunday before mellowing out to moderate on Monday. Expect sunny to partly sunny conditions with temperatures in the upper 70s to lower 80s, depending on where you are.

Remember, safety first! If severe weather warnings are issued, seek shelter away from the beach. And always keep an eye out for those rip currents - they can be gnarly!
