  beach erosion may damage coastal properties and buildings.
  Higher than normal water run-up is expected on beaches and low-
  lying shoreline.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Sneaker waves are also possible due to high
  waves and long period energetic periods. Caution should be used
  when in or near the water. Always keep an eye on the waves, and
  be especially watchful of children and pets.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A High Surf Advisory means that high surf will affect beaches,
producing rip currents, sneaker waves and beach erosion. Stay
well back from the water`s edge and be alert for exceptionally
high waves.

Keep away from large logs on the beach. Water running up on the
beach can easily lift or roll logs which can injure or kill
someone caught in their path.
