...BEACH HAZARDS STATEMENT IN EFFECT THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING...

* WHAT...Increased risk of sneaker waves expected.

* WHERE...Beaches of Douglas, Coos and Curry counties.

* WHEN...Through Sunday evening.

* IMPACTS...Sneaker waves can run up significantly farther on
  beaches than normal, including over rocks and jetties. These
  waves can suddenly knock people off of their feet and sweep them
  into the ocean. The waves can also move logs or other objects
  which could crush or trap anyone caught underneath.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...While sneaker waves can occur at any time,
  the greatest risk is on an incoming tide. Please be aware of the
  tides if venturing out onto the beaches this weekend.
