The National Weather Service issued the following high surf and small craft advisory:
A large long period west to northwesterly swell will likely produce breaking waves at the Morro Bay and possibly the Ventura Harbor entrances through Wednesday, especially around 7 p.m. Tuesday and 7 a.m. Wednesday during low tides. These conditions have a history of capsizing vessels of various sizes resulting in serious injury or death, even to the most experienced mariners. Mariners should use extreme caution or avoid these harbors altogether.
For more information, contact the local harbor patrol or coast guard station, and continue to monitor NOAA Weather Radio for the latest weather information.
