Issued for this forecast zone · National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard CA
What, impacts and precautionsHide details
What
Minor to moderate coastal flooding expected due to very high tides.
Impacts
Minor to moderate flooding of sea water is likely over vulnerable low-lying coastal areas, especially around the time of high tide, including over beach parking lots, bike paths, and harbor walkways. Moderate to significant beach erosion is likely. Isolated damage of structures due to sea water inundation is possible to the most vulnerable areas.
Additional details
High tides will likely reach 7.5-8.0 feet (MLLW) each late morning, which is 1.0 to 1.5 feet above astronomical projections. The highest tides will be Monday through Wednesday. There is a small chance for isolated Coastal Flood Warnings Wednesday through Thursday if larger surf develops.
Precautionary actions
Listen to advice from local officials. Do NOT drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth.
Areas: San Luis Obispo County Beaches; Santa Barbara County Central Coast Beaches; Santa Barbara County Southwestern Coast; Santa Barbara County Southeastern Coast; Ventura County Beaches; Malibu Coast; Los Angeles County Beaches
