...BEACH HAZARDS STATEMENT REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 5 PM PDT THIS
AFTERNOON...

* WHAT...A moderate mid period swell up to 12 feet combined with
  remaining summer time beach morphology will combine to increase
  the risk of sneaker waves and high surf runup.

* WHERE...Coastal Del Norte, Northern Humboldt Coast and
  Southwestern Humboldt Counties.

* WHEN...Until 5 PM PDT this afternoon. .

* IMPACTS...Large, unexpected waves can sweep across the beach
  without warning, sweeping people into the sea from rocks,
  jetties, and beaches. These sneaker waves can also move large
  objects such as logs, crushing anyone caught underneath.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Don`t be fooled by an ocean that looks calm.  There can be
30 minutes of small waves before a sneaker wave strikes.  Avoid
rocks and jetties. Avoid steep beaches.  Stay much farther back
from the water and never turn your back on the ocean.
