The big story continues to be the dangerous wave pattern we're seeing out on the water.

Surf could be 8-11 feet on exposed Central Coast beaches.

Evening high tides will be quite high both Saturday and Sunday nights, between 6.5-7 feet.

High tide is expected from 8:15p.m.-9 p.m. Saturday and 9p.m.-9:45p.m. Sunday night.

Throughout the day the threat of rip currents and breaking waves continues, making for some very dangerous conditions.

A High Surf Advisory and Small Craft advisory has been issued for areas around the coast.
