For the beaches in southern Alabama and the northwest Florida Panhandle, the rip current risk drops to a LOW Saturday through the beginning of next week. For the weekend through mid next week, surf heights remain generally 1 to 2 feet outside of any storms. Guidance shows marine winds increasing by Wednesday which would increase the rip current risk and surf heights for mid to end of next week, so this will be monitored over the upcoming forecast cycles.
