About those advisories

Coastal flooding and high surf

Be careful at the beaches these next few days as more high surf and minor coastal flooding will affect SoCal Beaches.

A coastal flood advisory has been issued for Orange and Los Angeles county beaches, including Catalina Island and the Malibu coast where low-lying areas such as parking lots and roads will see some flooding during morning high tide through noon Thursday.

Starting Wednesday a high surf advisory is in effect — expect large breaking waves of 5 to 8 feet at Orange and L.A. county beaches, including dangerous rip currents. West-facing beaches will see the highest surf where up to 9 feet sets are expected.

Freeze/frost advisories

Santa Clarita Valley, Woodland Hills and Van Nuys are under a frost advisory until 10 a.m.

Meanwhile, San Bernardino and Riverside county valleys are experiencing subfreezing temperatures as low as 27 degrees until 9 a.m.

This day in history

On this day in 2017 a strong mountain wave produced a wind gust up to 107 mph in Burns Canyon, east of the San Bernardino mountains.
