A hazardous surf advisory will be in effect from 2 a.m. Friday to midnight Saturday for San Diego County beaches, where a Pacific storm is expected to produce waves up to 8 feet high, the National Weather Service said.
The waves will drop to the range of 3 feet to 5 feet later in the weekend. But forecasters say dangerous rip currents will last into Sunday.
A storm that began off Alaska was approaching the county on Thursday afternoon and is expected to produce fierce winds from the ocean to the deserts, and likely drop snow down to the 3,000-foot level early Friday. The snow could affect travel on Interstate 8 east of Pine Valley.
Coastal areas could get 0.30 inches of rain, and twice as much could fall across inland valleys and foothills.
