High Surf Warnings and Advisories are in place today along the Oregon and SW Washington coast through at least noon on Saturday. Large waves and dangerous surf conditions with breakers up to 30 to 35 ft are expected. High surf will affect beaches, producing rip currents, sneaker waves and beach erosion. Stay well back from the water's edge and be alert for exceptionally high waves. Avoid jetties, headlands and logs on the beach. It's an even better idea to stay off the beach!
