Don't fight the current! This brochure details the dangers of rip currents, how they occur and how to "break the grip of the rip" if you or someone else is caught in one. Includes full color diagrams and pictures.
The brochure is part of an effort to raise awareness of rip currents in the Great Lakes and oceans. Developed by Michigan Sea Grant, in collaboration with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Weather Service and the United States Lifesaving Association (USLA).
