Things will still be coming into focus throughout the weekend, but a complex low-pressure system will bring rough surf, beach erosion, gusty winds and periods of heavy rain by next week, Terry said.
“We’ll go from rip currents to heavy downpours and windy weather next week at the beaches,” he said. “This new storm center will impact us in various ways -- likely through most of next week -- starting with overall higher surf (and) winds at the coast this weekend.”

Terry said rough surf and waves will increase as the system organizes by the middle of next week.
