...BEACH HAZARDS STATEMENT IN EFFECT FROM MONDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
TUESDAY MORNING...

* WHAT...A moderate risk of sneaker waves.

* WHERE...Douglas, Coos, and Curry County Beaches.

  comparatively lesser risk, awareness is also warranted for this
  afternoon and evening with a slight risk of sneaker waves.
