Beach Hazards Statement issued October 14 at 2:03AM PDT until October 15 at 2:00PM PDT by NWS San Diego CA

* WHAT...Elevated high tides 6.5 to 7 ft will continue through Thursday with surf of 3 to 5 ft with sets to 6 ft expected. * WHERE...San Diego County Coastal Areas and Orange County Coastal Areas. * WHEN...Through Thursday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Minor coastal flooding and beach erosion. Dangerous swimming conditions for inexperienced swimmers. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...High tides will fall below 6.5 ft after the Thursday high tide. A south swell from 190 degrees of 3 ft with a 15 to 17 second period will be present through Thursday. A moderate period, persistent south swell from 190 will continue into next week. A beach hazards statement for minor tidal overflow means that high astronomical tides possibly 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. A beach hazards statement is issued when threats such as rip currents and other hazards are possible. Caution should be used when in or near the water.
