some vulnerable low-lying coastal areas, especially around the
time of high tide, including over beach parking lots, bike

Monday and Tuesday mornings. Large secondary high tides are
also expected each evening.
Instruction:
Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. Do
NOT drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth.
Remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions, or stay
near occupied lifeguard towers. Rock jetties can be deadly in
such conditions, stay off the rocks.
