PORTLAND, Ore. -- A high surf advisory remains in effect for the North Coast through Tuesday afternoon.
 
The National Weather Service says rip currents and beach erosion are possible and jetties are particularly dangerous.
 
Strong winds whipped the coast Sunday night and another storm was on its way.
 
Seas were 25 to 30 feet early Monday, but subsided to 20 feet before noon.
 
The storms caused no major problems. The Daily Astorian reported that roads on the Long Beach Peninsula were littered with foliage early Monday and large pools of water accumulated at the entrance of the Lands End RV park off Pacific Highway.
