* WHAT...For vulnerable south-facing beaches, especially Long Beach and Malibu, damaging sea-water flooding is likely. For all other beaches and harbors, minor coastal flooding is expected. High surf of 4 to 7 feet is also expected with strong rip currents. * WHERE...Malibu Coast and Los Angeles County Beaches. * WHEN...For the Coastal Flood Warning, until 3 PM PDT Sunday. For the High Surf Advisory, from 6 AM to 10 PM PDT Sunday. * IMPACTS...For vulnerable south-facing beaches, sea-water flooding can damage beach roads and structures, especially around the time of high tide. For all other beaches and harbors, shallow and minor sea-water flooding can impact beaches and walkways. For all beach areas, significant erosion is expected. There is an increased risk for ocean drowning. Rip currents can pull swimmers and surfers out to sea. Large breaking waves can cause injury, wash people off beaches and rocks, and capsize small boats near shore. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Sunday carries the widest range of coastal flooding outcomes due to chances of rain, wind, low pressure tidal enhancements, and swells from multiple directions. Coastal flooding impacts on Sunday could be similar to other days, or greatly enhanced. High tides of 7.3 to 7.6 feet will be common each morning. This warning may be extended past Sunday, or converted to a Coastal Flood Advisory through Tuesday. Stay off of beaches and coastal walkways, roads, and structures. Do NOT drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Heed advice from local officials. Remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions, or stay near occupied lifeguard towers. Rock jetties can be deadly in such conditions, stay off the rocks.
