San Luis Obispo County health officials are warning people to stay out of the water at local beaches for three days after the rain.

The rain advisory was issued Monday morning.

During a rain advisory, people, including surfers, are advised to avoid contact with ocean water during and 72 hours after heavy rain as the water could be contaminated from runoff and cause skin, respiratory or intestinal problems for people.
