[quote=MN3]they say it was a rip tide, not the regular tidal changes. However, the regular tides around there are very strong.
They showed on foxnews how the rip tides require lots of wind to push in extra water in an area, waves to push more water on shore, and astronomical higher tide. Then how the rip tide flows back out, and down (or up) the beach through underwater channels.
I hadn't realized that rip tides can push people out to sea.. i thought they ran parallel to the coast.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by MN3 on Apr 10, 2012 - 09:01 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
