...BEACH HAZARDS STATEMENT REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH LATE
TONIGHT...
...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 5 AM MONDAY TO
5 PM PDT TUESDAY...
...HIGH SURF ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 5 AM MONDAY TO 5 PM
PDT TUESDAY...

* WHAT...For the Beach Hazards Statement, dangerous rip currents
  and breaking waves due to elevated surf. For the Coastal Flood
  Advisory, moderate coastal flooding expected. For the High
  Surf Advisory, breaking waves of 4 to 7 feet with dangerous
  rip currents.

* WHERE...Catalina and Santa Barbara Islands, Ventura County
  Beaches, Malibu Coast and Los Angeles County Beaches. Focused
  across exposed south facing coasts.

* WHEN...For the Beach Hazards Statement, through 5 AM Monday.
  For the Coastal Flood Advisory and High Surf Advisory, from 5
  AM Monday to 5 PM PDT Tuesday.

* IMPACTS...Moderate flooding of sea water is likely over some
  vulnerable low-lying coastal areas, especially around the time
  of high tide, including over beach parking lots, bike paths,
  and harbor walkways. Moderate to locally significant beach
  erosion is likely. Very localized damage possible to most
  vulnerable areas. There is an increased risk for 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...Areas of most concern are Avalon, Long
  Beach (Peninsula and Belmont Shore). While the surf will likely
  be smaller than Marie (from earlier this month), the lingering
  erosion effects enhance the vulnerabilities for locally more
  significant coastal flooding.

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.

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

Santa Barbara County Southwestern Coast-
Santa Barbara County Southeastern Coast-
1218 PM PDT Sun Sep 27 2026

...BEACH HAZARDS STATEMENT REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON...

* WHAT...Dangerous rip currents and breaking waves of 3 to 5
  feet. Minor tidal overflows possible, especially Monday and
  Tuesday.

* WHERE...Santa Barbara County Southwestern Coast and Santa
  Barbara County Southeastern Coast.

* WHEN...Through Wednesday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...There is an increased risk of ocean drowning. Rip
  currents can pull swimmers and surfers out to sea. Waves can
  wash people off beaches and rocks, and capsize small boats
  nearshore. Pooling of sea water is possible around high tide
  at beach and harbor areas (including Santa Barbara Harbor).
  Enhanced beach erosion is also possible. No significant damage
  is expected.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Locally moderate coastal flooding impacts
  possible but unlikely for areas such as Santa Barbara Harbor.
  These impacts may include moderate flooding of sea water over
  some vulnerable low-lying coastal areas, especially around the
  time of high tide, including over beach parking lots, bike
  paths, and harbor walkways. Additionally, locally moderate
  beach erosion is possible.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

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