* WHAT...A moderate risk of sneaker waves is expected.
* WHERE...The beaches and shorelines of Curry, Coos, and Douglas
counties.
* WHEN...From Monday evening through Tuesday afternoon.
* IMPACTS...Sneaker waves can run up significantly farther on
beaches than normal, including over rocks and jetties. These
waves can suddenly knock people off of their feet and quickly
pull them into the cold ocean waters, resulting in serious
injury or death. Waves may also lift driftwood logs, trapping
anyone caught underneath.

A thin layer of below freezing temperatures is trapped in the
Hood River Valley this morning as light rainfall begins to
increase across the region. Patchy freezing rain has been reported
by the cites of Parkdale, Glenwood, and Odell. Temperatures will
be slow to warm heading into the midday hours allowing light
freezing rain to continue until 1200-1300 PST. Light ice
accumulations of 0.02-0.06 inches this morning may impact travel
and make surfaces slick. Slippery road conditions are difficult to
see and can catch driver off guard, increasing the risk of car
accidents; use caution.
