Beach Hazards Statement issued October 19 at 10:24PM PDT until October 20 at 10:00AM PDT by NWS Eureka CA

Effective: Sun October 19, 2025, 10:24 PM
Expires: Mon October 20, 2025, 10:00 AM

* WHAT...Increased threat of sneaker waves and enhanced surf up to 22 feet. * WHERE...Coastal Del Norte, Northern Humboldt Coast, Southwestern Humboldt and Mendocino Coast Counties. * WHEN...Until 10 AM PDT Monday. . * IMPACTS...Large, unexpected waves can sweep across the beach without warning, sweeping people into the sea from rocks, jetties, and beaches. These sneaker waves can also move large objects such as logs, crushing anyone caught underneath. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...A large long period NW swell will build this evening and peak overnight. Above normal breakers from 16 to 20 feet on west and northwest facing beaches will be possible this evening through early Monday morning.

Don't be fooled by an ocean that looks calm. There can be 30 minutes of small waves before a sneaker wave strikes. Avoid rocks and jetties. Avoid steep beaches. Stay much farther back from the water and never turn your back on the ocean.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
