...HIGH SURF WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT...THEN WILL BE REPLACED 
WITH A HIGH SURF ADVISORY FROM 5 AM THURSDAY TO 5 PM CHST 
FRIDAY... 
...COASTAL FLOOD STATEMENT REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH LATE 
TONIGHT...

* WHAT...Dangerously large breaking waves of 12 to 16 feet.
  Isolated minor coastal flooding expected.

* WHERE...North and west facing reefs and shorelines of Yap and
  Palau.

* WHEN...For the High Surf Warning and Coastal Flood Statement,
  until 5 AM ChST Thursday. For the High Surf Advisory, from 5 AM
  Thursday to 5 PM ChST Friday.

* IMPACTS...Some water on low lying roads and property. Breaking 
  waves can sweep people off jetties and docks, and into dangerous
  seas. Life-threatening swimming conditions and significant 
  beach erosion can be expected.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...As Super Typhoon Bavi (09W) passes well
  north of the region, the trailing monsoon surge gradually shifts
  northwest. Significant north to northwest swell and southwest
  swell associated with this pattern will still persist over the
  next several days, gradually weakening late week. Dangerous surf
  of up to 16 feet along north and west facing reefs is expected
  through tonight, capable of producing minor coastal flooding
  along the respective shorelines. Then, surf is expected to fall
  below dangerous levels of 15 ft Thursday morning, but is still
  expected to remain hazardous through at least Friday afternoon.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Everyone should remain out of the water due to life-threatening
surf conditions. Stay off of jetties, piers, and other waterside
infrastructure.
