Marine conditions are hazardous throughout Friday due to that strong northeast flow. It's bringing large swells along our coastline with the threat of coastal flooding and beach erosion.

There's a high surf advisory in effect through Friday afternoon, so expect large breaking waves of 7 to 13 feet at the beach with a high risk of rip currents.

Coastal waters are also rough, and those seas will range between 12 to 18 feet, so a small craft advisory is in effect.

Boating conditions will improve this weekend with seas down to 2 to 4 feet and a light chop by Sunday.
