Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeThere was a low risk of rip currents this day. However, it is possible a gust front from offshore storms increased onshore winds and waves (after looking at a picture near the time of fatality).
Event narrativeevent_narrativeFather rescued his 8-year-old daughter who was pulled offshore by a rip/tidal current. It is likely that a gust front from offshore storms briefly increased onshore winds and waves leading to the rip current. Also, the tide was going out of Redfish Pass so there may have been a tidal influence as well.
