* WHAT...For the Beach Hazards Statement, an increased risk of sneaker waves and strong rip currents with breaking waves of 14 to 19 feet. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, up to 1.4 ft of inundation above ground level is possible in low-lying areas near shorelines and tidal waterways. * WHERE...San Francisco and Monterey Bay. * WHEN...For the Beach Hazards Statement, from 9 PM PST this evening through 9 AM PST Friday morning. For the Coastal Flood Advisory, from 6 AM PST Thursday to noon PST Sunday. * IMPACTS...Flooding of lots, parks, and roads with only isolated road closures expected. Dangerous conditions are forecast along the shoreline. Hazards include sneaker waves, strong rip currents, and large breaking waves. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...At the San Francisco tidal gauge, high tide is expected to be: 1.2 ft above normal (7.02 ft MLLW) at 7:34 AM Thursday 1/29, 1.1 ft above normal (6.98 ft MLLW) at 8:34 AM Friday 1/30, 1.4 ft above normal (7.24 ft MLLW) at 9:30 AM Saturday 1/31, 1.3 ft above normal (7.16 ft MLLW) at 10:22 AM Sunday 2/1. These predictions include up to 0.4 ft of storm surge that will enhance the astronomical tide and flooding threat. High tide timing varies up to 90 minutes earlier or later along the Pacific Coast and through the San Francisco Bay, respectively.

If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. Stay off of jetties, piers, rocks, and other waterside infrastructure. Remain out of the water to avoid hazardous surf and NEVER turn your back on the ocean.
