Alerts and conditions

Weather High Surf Advisory issued November 8 at 12:17PM PST until November 8 at 10:00PM PST by NWS Eureka CA

* WHAT...Large breaking waves 22 to 24 feet.

* WHERE...Coastal Del Norte, Southwestern Humboldt and Coastal

Mendocino Counties.

* WHEN...Until 10 PM PST this evening. .

* IMPACTS...Dangerous surf conditions and localized beach

erosion. Beachcombing is highly discouraged!.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...The large surf on Sunday will coincide

with high astronomical tides and high tidal anomalies. This

will allow significant runup onto area beaches and may impact

normally dry land or even roads or parking lots.

What to do: Large breaking waves along the coast will lead to increased wave run-up on beaches with waves topping and washing over large rocks and jetties. These large waves can be erratic and unpredictable. Use extra caution near the surf zone as these large waves will be capable of sweeping people into the frigid and turbulent ocean water. Mariners traversing the bar are urged to exercise extreme caution or stay in port until the threat subsides. Please contact the U.S. Coast Guard for information regarding harbor and bar closures.
