A Flood Watch has been issued for the North Bay beginning 4 AM Wednesday through 4 AM Saturday. Flooding will be possible due to excessive rainfall.

Dangerous wave action associated with the onset of the strong Atmospheric River will result in hazardous swimming and surf conditions the next few days. Large waves can sweep across the beach without warning, pulling people into the water from rocks, jetties and beaches. Inexperienced swimmers should remain out of the water due to dangerous surf conditions.

A Wind Advisory is in effect from 10 PM Tuesday through 6 AM Thursday. Strong southerly winds gusting to 45 mph will result in difficult driving conditions. When combined with the heavy rain, tree damage and related impacts are expected.
