* IMPACTS...Flooding of sea water is likely around the time of
  high tide, over low-lying coastal areas such as parking lots,
  beaches, and walkways. Significant damage to roads or
  structures is NOT expected. There is an increased risk of
  ocean drowning. Rip currents can pull swimmers and surfers out
  to sea. Large breaking waves can cause injury, wash people off
  beaches and rocks, and capsize small boats near shore.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...High tides of 6.2 to near 7.0 feet will
  occur in the evening hours through Friday night, peaking
  tonight through Thursday night. In conjunction with the
  highest expected surf from Tropical Cyclone Genevieve
  southerly swell, the best potential for minor coastal flooding
  impacts is expected Wednesday and Thursday evening.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. Do
NOT drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth.

Remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions, or stay
near occupied lifeguard towers. Rock jetties can be deadly in
such conditions, stay off the rocks.
