The coastal waters of San Diego County are under a general rain advisory Sunday due to contamination by urban runoff following last week’s rain, according to the Department of Environmental Health and Quality.
Swimmers, surfers and other ocean users are warned that levels of bacteria can rise significantly in ocean waters, especially near storm drains, creeks, rivers and lagoon outlets that discharge urban runoff.
“Activities such as swimming, surfing and diving should be avoided for 72 hours following rain,” the advisory said.
The most recent rain was last Friday.
The warning applies to beaches from San Onofre State Beach south to Border Field State Park, including Mission Bay and San Diego Bay.
The anticipated lift date was scheduled for Monday at 2 p.m.
