NE CLOUDS-Greek Salad with Chicken

The northeast breezes have brought clouds and a slight chance of rip currents to the beach. The temp and humidity are in the low 80's an the ocean is only about 79. The tide is up most of the day so swimming is easy. Keep a watch for rip currents, and just stay close to the life guard towers. It is a yellow flag day.
