...BEACH HAZARDS STATEMENT REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH LATE
TONIGHT...

* WHAT...Sneaker waves possible.

* WHERE...North and Central Coast of Oregon, and South
  Washington Coast.

* WHEN...Through late tonight.

* IMPACTS...Waves can run up significantly farther on a beach than
  normal, including over rocks and jetties. Sneaker waves can
  suddenly knock people off of their feet and quickly pull them
  into the frigid ocean which may lead to serious injury or
  drowning.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Threat will lower after Monday, but sneaker
  waves are still a possibility. Keep children and pets away from
  the surf zone. Keep off of jetties, rocks and logs near the surf
  zone. If you see someone swept into the sea do not swim in after
  them. Call 911 and keep an eye on them until help arrives. NOTE:
  Razor clammers beware.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Remain out of the water to avoid hazardous swimming conditions.
