Beach Hazards Statement

* WHAT...Dangerous rip currents and breaking waves due to elevated surf. Minor tidal overflows are possible during morning high tides.

* WHERE...Catalina and Santa Barbara Islands, Santa Barbara County Southwestern Coast and Santa Barbara County Southeastern Coast.

* WHEN...Through Monday 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.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A significant westerly swell is expected this weekend with impacts likely peaking Saturday. There is potential for advisory-level surf, enhanced beach erosion and minor tidal overflows. Posing most risk to west-facing shores. Coastal hazards are likely to continue well into next week.
