...COASTAL FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 7 AM THIS MORNING
TO 10 PM PST THURSDAY...
...HIGH SURF ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 4 AM TO 7 PM PST
THURSDAY...

* WHAT...For the Coastal Flood Warning, moderate to major coastal
  flooding is expected. Inundation of 2 to 3 feet above ground
  level is possible along shorelines and low lying coastal areas.
  For the High Surf Advisory, large breaking waves of 20 to 25
  feet are expected.

* WHERE...Northern Washington Coast and Grays Harbor County
  Coast zones.

* WHEN...For the Coastal Flood Warning, from 7 AM this morning
  to 10 PM PST Thursday. For the High Surf Advisory, from 4 AM
  to 7 PM PST Thursday.

* IMPACTS...Significant coastal flooding due to high tides and
  storm surge is expected. This is expected to lead to numerous
  road closures. Low lying property including homes, businesses,
  and some critical infrastructure may be inundated. Shoreline
  erosion or damage may occur. Strong surf and sneaker waves can
  knock people off their feet, move driftwood and debris causing
  injury, and cause localized beach and coastal erosion.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...There is high confidence in the water
  levels reaching moderate to major flood inundations coincident
  with the midday high tides, particularly in Westport and La
  Push. Wave activity is expected to peak on Thursday, potentially
  resulting in as many or more impacts than the high tide on
  Wednesday.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. If
travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through
water of unknown depth.

Inundation above ground level refers to the height above the Mean
Higher High Water (MHHW) level.

Never turn your back on the ocean and keep children and pets
close. Know the tides and surf forecast. Follow warning signs and
respect barriers.
