3 Currents in Lake Superior
4 Seiches About 8 hours to slosh from east to west in Lake Superior
5 The lake is moving and ever changing!
6 A Recent Realization: Rip Currents August 17th, 2003: 4-6 foot waves reported. A 21 year old Duluth Man drowned off Minnesota Point around 4 p.m. CDT A man on a boogie board rescued 6 others around 4 p.m. at the same place The Duluth Fire Dept rescued a teenage girl around 8 p.m. near LaFayette Square Reports of several others that were rescued July 20th, 2004: Swimmer rescued from a Rip Current by firefighter near 1600 Minnesota Ave on Minnesota Point August 4, 2004: Several swimmers rescued (one by a TV reporter out covering the rip currents)
7 % of beach users able to explain how to escape a Rip Current 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% Yes No 10% 0% Calm Day Wavy Day
8 % of beach users able to explain how to escape a Rip Current vs frequency of visits to Minnesota Point 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Many A few Only a couple 1st time Yes No
9 What is a Rip Current? Rip currents are powerful, channeled currents of water flowing away from shore. They typically extend from the shoreline, through the surf zone, and past the line of breaking waves. Rip Currents: Are typically narrow ( feet wide) Are strong surface currents (NOT undertows!) Can be faster than olympic swimmers Can persist for hours, days, or longer
10 How do Rip Currents form? Waves pile water up near the shore This water rips through a sandbar to create an escape (or uses an existing channel) The piled up water then flows out into the lake Rip Currents need: Breaking Waves A Path back to the lake Most common on sandy beaches with regular wave patterns
11 Rip Currents
12 Rip Currents
13 Rip Currents
14 Visual Signs of a Rip Current: Foam or debris floating away from shore a break in the wave pattern A channel of churning, choppy water Soon after formation, you may see a channel of dirtier looking water, but after a while, this dirtiness may vanish
15 Escaping a Rip Current First instinct: SWIM TOWARDS SHORE!!!
16 Escaping a Rip Current First: Know how to swim, and swim with a friend! Second: Don t get caught! Know the signs of a Rip Current, and LOOK for them!
17 Escaping a Rip Current Third: If you get caught in a Rip Current: Don t fight the current; this will only exhaust you Swim parallel to shore until you re out of the current, then angle back to shore Or float out in the current until the current dissipates, then swim at an angle back to shore
18 What s a Rip Current Like? Listening to the Lake Radio Program
19 Lake Superior Average Water Temperature: 40 deg F
20 Our Beaches: a single 10-mile long sandbar Minnesota Point: over 1,000 residents, park and recreation areas, official city beach Wisconsin Point: fairly remote and mostly undeveloped, no services

25 It s a beautiful lake, but powerful. Rip Currents should not keep you away from the beach! Just know: what to look for, and what to do if you get caught and now you know! New Projects Jesse Schomberg University of Minnesota Sea Grant Program
26 Rip Current Survey Have you heard about Rip Currents on Lake Superior? (y/n) If Yes, where have you heard about them from? Can you explain how to get out of a Rip Current? Swim sideways/parallel to shore Float/tread water until current slows, then swim at angle towards shore What are some of the tell-tale signs of a Rip Current in the water? Any of following: different/choppy wave pattern in a line away from shore foam or debris flowing away from shore dark band of dirty/muddy water band of darker/deeper-looking water
27 Summer 2006 Rip Current Activities Student intern Face-to-face survey of beach users on Rip Current Awareness Warm, sunny days Windy, wavy days Hand out Brochures to beach users Beach Talks, other community events
