Beach Hazards Statement
Urgency:
Expected
Effective:
May 27, 2025 - 12:44am
Expires:
May 27, 2025 - 3:00pm
Description:
* WHAT...Breaking waves up to 6 feet for south facing beaches
and dangerous rip currents due to a long lived, long period
south swell. Minor nuisance flooding at susceptible south
facing beaches during high tide in the evening hours through
Tuesday.
* WHERE...Ventura County Beaches, Malibu Coast and Los Angeles
County Beaches.
* WHEN...Through late tonight.
* 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. No
significant damage is expected.
Instruction:
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.
