...BEACH HAZARDS STATEMENT NOW IN EFFECT FROM SUNDAY MORNING
THROUGH WEDNESDAY EVENING...

* WHAT...Dangerous rip currents and breaking waves due to
  elevated surf expected. Potential thunderstorms could produce
  dangerous lightning.

* WHERE...San Luis Obispo County Beaches, Santa Barbara County
  Central Coast Beaches, Santa Barbara County Southwestern
  Coast, Santa Barbara County Southeastern Coast, Ventura County
  Beaches, Malibu Coast and Los Angeles County Beaches.

* WHEN...From Sunday morning through Wednesday evening.

* 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. Lightning strikes can harm individuals that are
  struck.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A south to southwest swell will affect
  the coastal waters through the week. With the longer period
  swell, the potential for larger surf and a greater risk for
  rip currents will be likely. High tides are expected to
  continue through this weekend with Monday being the peak of
  7.0 to 7.6 ft above MLLW. With the high tides and south swell,
  there is the potential for some minor coastal flooding in low
  lying areas. Another concern will be the potential for
  lightning starting Sunday with a 10-20% of thunderstorms
  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.

Seek shelter inside a fully enclosed building or car with metal
roof if lightning is in the area and wait until the lightning has
left the area.
