Description

What

Dangerous rip currents and breaking waves due to elevated surf up to 4 to 6 feet expected.

Where

Catalina and Santa Barbara Islands, Santa Barbara County South Coast, Malibu Coast and Los Angeles County Beaches.

When

From late tonight through Tuesday morning.

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 that is uncommon with normal tidal ranges. Enhanced beach erosion is also possible.

Additional details

High tides of 7.2 to 7.6 feet (MLLW) are expected each morning. Surf and coastal flooding impacts peak on Monday, when it is possible that a Coastal Flood Advisory is need.

Instructions

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.

Affected areas

  • Catalina and Santa Barbara Islands
  • Santa Barbara County Southwestern Coast
  • Santa Barbara County Southeastern Coast
