Rip Currents (2 of 3)
- "Savvy surfers rely on rip currents for free rides beyond the surf zone. But unwary bathers may wade into the water only to find themselves suddenly swept away. If they keep their heads and swim across the current, parallel to shore, they can escape its grip and make their way back to the beach." - excerpt from the article, free registration required, at http://www.nytimes.com/2005/06/07/science/07rip.html?8dpc
