Florida will fall back to standard time on Nov.

Windy conditions have created dangerous rip currents along South Florida beaches, and lifeguards advise swimmers to stay away from marked water as the high surf advisory remains until Wednesday morning — with a continued rip current risk until Thursday evening.
