Interior Central Coast: Extreme heat will hit the valleys of southern Monterey and San Benito counties, with temperatures cracking the triple-digits at 100°F to 104°F A Beach Hazards warning is locked in today through Friday.This long-interval swell creates an exceptionally high risk for deadly sneaker waves and dangerous rip currents Sneaker waves strike without warning during peaceful lulls, surging dozens of feet up dry sand to sweep beachgoers into the freezing surf. Never turn your back on the ocean!
