* 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 5 to 8 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.
