HEADS UP FLORIDA! 💨🌊 This weekend into early next week we have several changes on the way including windy weather, high surf and coastal flooding. Here's everything you need to know:

1) As high pressure settles into the Northeast this weekend, it'll set-up a tight pressure gradient / sharp change in pressure across Florida. As a result, that helps to crank up wind!

2) We could see gusts as high as 35 - 45 mph Sunday into Monday, especially along the East Coast.

3) All that wind is going to keep the Atlantic very unsettled. High Surf Advisory is in effect with surf zone wave heights as high as 7 - 13 feet Sunday - Tuesday. 15 - 20 feet offshore.

4) Coastal flooding is expected to worsen along Florida’s East Coast this weekend into especially early next week around high tide. Higher “king tides” with the approaching full moon will combine with several days of gusty northeast winds to push water onshore. Unfortunately, beach erosion will be another consequence as well.

5) Florida rainfall over the next 7 days will be a Tale of Two Coastlines. Higher on the East Coast, lower on the West Coast. South Florida has the potential for 2 - 4" of rain in spots + localized flooding, especially from West Palm to Miami.

I'll continue to keep you updated with no hype, just the facts. Thanks everyone!

Snow boots are fine, but give me flip-flops, warm sand, and the sound of ocean waves any day!

There is just something about a beach day that makes everything feel better. 🌴☀️🌊

🔎 What do I do for Workers’ Compensation Audits & Inspections?

Through CoastalVerify, I help insurers understand how a business operates, what employees actually do, and the workplace exposures that could lead to injuries.

📋 Audit support: I verify business operations, document employee duties, and collect requested information and records within the insurer’s assigned scope. This helps support an accurate picture of the business for insurance review.

🦺 Workplace inspections: I observe job tasks, equipment, working conditions, and safety practices. I document potential injury hazards—from slippery floors and lifting exposures to machinery, burns, and chemical handling.

📸 Clear documentation: My work brings together observations, photographs, interviews, and detailed reporting, with recommendations when requested.

From restaurants and nail salons to medical offices, warehouses, and auto repair shops, I provide eyes on the ground to help inform insurance decisions and support safer workplaces.

🌊🚩 COASTALVERIFY + COASTAL CALM

Verify Before You Decide… Stay Dry & Stay Alive!

Beach safety reminder for Saturday, October 10:
The National Weather Service reports a HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK from Pinellas through Lee County beaches through Sunday evening. (weather.gov)

💙 Today, enjoy those coastal vibes from shore. Stay out of the surf, respect beach flags and closures, and follow lifeguard instructions.

If caught in a rip current:
🌊 Relax and float—don’t fight the current.
🌊 If able, swim parallel to shore to escape the pull, then angle back toward the beach.
🌊 If you can’t escape, float and wave or call for help.

See someone struggling? Alert a lifeguard or call 911. Throw something that floats—don’t enter the water to attempt a rescue. (weather.gov, weather.gov)

CoastalVerify brings risk awareness. Coastal Calm brings wellness and coastal living. Together, we’re reminding you that taking care of yourself starts with making safe decisions. 🌴💙🐾
