On Thursday at 4:43 p.m., the National Weather Service issued a beach hazards bulletin for Curry County Coast that will be in effect from Friday at 8 p.m. until Saturday at 7 a.m.
According to the weather service, there is “a high 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. According to the weather service, waves can also lift driftwood logs, trapping anyone stuck underneath. “Avoid scaling jetties and rocks. To avoid dangerous situations, stay out of the water and away from the ocean.
