Beach Hazards Statement

* WHAT...Elevated surf of 3-5 feet with sets up to 6 feet through next Tuesday. Astronomical tides of 6.0-6.5 feet through Sunday, rising to 6.5-7.0 feet Monday through Wednesday leading to minor tidal overflow.

* WHERE...Beaches of Orange and San Diego Counties.

* WHEN...Through Wednesday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Minor tidal overflow and minor coastal erosion expected during high tides. Additionally, elevated surf will lead to strong rip currents.
