A HEAVY, LONG PERIOD WEST SWELL WILL ARRIVE AT THE OREGON COAST LATE SUNDAY MORNING AND CONTINUE THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. THESE SWELLS WILL PRODUCE BREAKING WAVES OF AROUND 20 FEET IN THE SURF ZONE. WAVES OF THIS MAGNITUDE MAY OVERTOP JETTIES AND PRODUCE
SNEAKER WAVES THAT RUN WELL UP ONTO AREA BEACHES.

CONDITIONS WILL BE THE MOST DANGEROUS AROUND THE TIME OF HIGH
TIDE, WHICH WILL OCCUR AROUND 3 PM PST SUNDAY.
