Update: Beach hazards statement issued for South Central Oregon Coast and Curry County Coast until early Monday evening

The National Weather Service released a revised beach hazards advisory for the Curry County and South Central Oregon coasts on Monday at 1:02 a.m., which is valid until 4 p.m.

Per the weather service, there is “a moderate risk of sneaker waves.”

“On beaches, including over rocks and jetties, shark waves can go up much farther than usual. These waves have the power to take people off their feet and drag them swiftly into the chilly ocean waters, which can cause fatalities or severe injuries. The meteorological agency also notes that driftwood logs may be lifted by waves, trapping anyone caught underneath. “Avoid scaling jetties and rocks. To avoid dangerous situations, stay out of the water and away from the ocean.

United Robots offers a service called Advance Local Weather Alerts that gathers the most recent information from the National Weather Service using machine learning.
