Swells up to 20 feet will roil local waters in coming days as a series of storms move through the Southland.
The Coast Guard is advising boaters to use extreme caution through Saturday. Storms may cause coast flooding and strong rip currents as well.
"Large waves have the potential to catch even the most experienced mariner or beachgoer off guard, causing disorientation or serious injury," the Guard said in a statement. "The Coast Guard strongly recommends that individuals avoid taking to the water over the next week or until the seas subside."
