Description
What
Elevated surf of 3-5 feet with sets up to 6 feet through next Tuesday. Astronomical tides of 6.0-6.5 feet through Sunday, rising to 6.5-7.0 feet Monday through Wednesday leading to minor tidal overflow.
Where
Beaches of Orange and San Diego Counties.
When
Through Wednesday afternoon.
Impacts
Minor tidal overflow and minor coastal erosion expected during high tides. Additionally, elevated surf will lead to strong rip currents.
Additional details
High tides will approach 7.0 feet each morning Monday through Wednesday. These water levels in combination with elevated surf provides a window for moderate coastal flooding on Monday and Tuesday, especially along south and southwest-facing beaches.
Instructions
A beach hazards statement for minor tidal overflow means that high astronomical tides in combination with above normal surf will likely produce minor flooding of low-lying areas along the beach such as beach parking lots. Coastal officials should take the necessary precautionary measures to safeguard their beaches.
