* WHEN...Until 4 PM ChST Thursday.

* IMPACTS...Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and

hazardous surf and a high risk of rip currents along west-facing
reefs through Thursday afternoon. The High Surf Advisory and High

pattern and associated west to northwest swells continue into next

should remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions.

Rip currents will be life threatening. If caught in a rip
