Hurricane Marie, well out in the Pacific, created flooding and dangerous conditions at some southern California beaches over Labor Day weekend, with strong currents and huge waves presenting a threat to swimmers and surfers.
Rose Schoenfeld, a National Weather Service meteorologist, said Sunday that Marie stirred up "life-threatening" conditions as it churned in the ocean hundreds of miles off California's Pacific coast. Some south-facing beaches have seen surf up to 10 feet (3 meters) high, she said.
"We're getting reports from lifeguards that the surf conditions are very dangerous, specifically the rip currents," Schoenfeld said.
Hurricane Marie won't make landfall and is expected to weaken to a tropical storm by late Sunday, but will still but will still bring rain to parts of Los Angeles County before it dissipates. Some parts of the area have already seen as much as a quarter inch of rain Sunday, Schoenfeld said.
The National Weather Service advised people to swim only near lifeguards and to stay off rock jetties.

Brooks Nader brings lifeguard heat to Drama Club FOX's Reel. The model and actress appear in promo content for Fox's "Baywatch" reboot, with the caption, "Just iconic #Baywatch behavior," as the video puts her red uniform front and center.
Have a look at Brooks Nader in the quintessential "Baywatch" swimsuit:
The model's swimsuit is the hook. Nader wears the signature red one-piece with a scoop neckline, wide straps, high-cut legs, and a round lifeguard-style patch near the hip. The curve-hugging shape revives the franchise's famous beach-run image with a robe-layered twist.
She wears the swimsuit under an oversized gray robe-style cardigan, left open over her shoulders for a post-scene finish. Her long blonde hair falls in waves with face-framing layers. Bronzed skin, defined brows, smoky eyes, contoured cheeks, and a nude-pink lip complete the glam.
Nader plays Selene, captain of the Zuma Beach lifeguards. Fans reacted quickly. One wrote, "she's an icon she's a legend and she is the moment!" Another said, "Gorgeous." A third added, "ICONIC."
