* WHAT...Large breaking waves of 9 to 12 feet and dangerous rip currents expected.

* WHERE...Along west and north facing reefs.

* WHEN...Until 4 PM ChST Monday.

* IMPACTS...Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. Rip currents can sweep even the best swimmers away from shore into deeper water.
