I had not heard about this on Saturday when I got a little over excited on the subject of sneaker waves after a customer mentioned she had heard looking for agates at night with a light made them stand out better. Any time you go to the beach there is a chance of sneaker waves - recently they have been posting more warnings when the ocean & weather conditions make them more likely to occur. They are called “sneaker” waves for a reason - you can’t predict them! The water is cold year round on the Oregon coast and that adds to the risk. Please be very careful on the beach and don’t turn your back to the waves. Let someone know you are going and what time you expect to return. Wear bright reflective clothes just in case someone may need to locate you in the water for a rescue. And stay away from the logs that can move and roll in just a few inches of water.

Angela Wynia, a 50-year-old physician’s assistant from Portland, heard screaming when she stopped to run her dog on the beach at Yachats. She rushed to help.
