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

* WHAT...Large breaking waves of 7 to 9 ft. * WHERE...West and north facing reefs of Palau, west facing reefs of Yap. * WHEN...Until 6 AM ChST Friday. * IMPACTS...Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and localized beach erosion. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Tropical Storm Bualoi has exited the region, and west to northwest swell is diminishing across the region. Hazardous surf has diminished below hazardous levels for south facing reefs of Yap, and is expected to fall below hazardous levels along north and west facing reefs of Palau, and west facing reefs of Yap late overnight. Late Friday through the weekend, an elevated north swell is expected to move through the region, emanating from distant Typhoon Neoguri. This may lead to hazardous surf along north facing reefs of Yap, particularly around Sunday, and a new High Surf Advisory may be issued within the next day or two. The incoming north swell will be closely monitored for the possibility of hazardous surf along north facing reefs of Palau as well.
