HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

SURF:  Swells generated by Dolores continue to affect portions of
the west coast of the Baja California peninsula and are beginning to
reach the coast of southern California.  These swells could cause
life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.  For additional
information, please consult products from your local weather office.
