This long run of big surf in Southern California has been so good that even spots which haven't broke for decades came alive! I'm incredibly luck to have caught this because changes are this place will not break again for decades. Thanks for watching. I'm Brad Jacobson and I'll sea ya on the sand.



This is mostly just big picture shots of the swell this month January 2023. Southern California got some historic levels of swell and spots that never work turned on! Drone footage of the coast and swell.

California - The Biggest Swell in Decades.. Continues

 

California is still getting battered by massive waves this week... For some it's the biggest they have seen in decades. Stay safe and watch out for each other... Check it out:


Biggest is not always best. And in the case of last week’s Wild West swell — the biggest in decades to hit California — truth is, it was only actually good at a handful of spots during short windows of tide and wind, and/or at tucked-in nook-and-cranny novelty waves. (It also wreaked 17 different kinds of havoc across the state, washing over roadways, breaking piers and into harbors.) Yeah, it was a historic surf event which’ll be talked about in parking lots and lineups and coffee shops for years, and it rearranged the relationship with where we surf, but it (mostly) ended up being more spectacle than participatory. And above we present the spectacle, including a mad return to Todos Santos. With more on the way, especially Friday and Saturday across Southern California.


Huge sets, Surfline reporting 15-18ft earlier in morning Swell Direction WSW, W, WNW (medium to long period swells over 14sec are best) Surf Height Overhead to 4x overhead

One of the largest swells in the past 15 years hit the west coast on Friday January 6, 2023. Thanks to surf forecaster Mike Durand with SwellMagnet for helping me sort out where to go for this swell. I was torn between Rincon and San Diego and opted to go where it would be biggest. Thanks for watching. I'm Brad Jacobson and I'll sea ya on the sand.

Caution - California Battered By Massive Waves


 

California is getting battered by massive waves this week... For some it's the biggest they have seen in the last 15 years. For others like Kelly Slater it was an opportunity to get some waves in places he had never surfed before. What ever the case may be for you, stay safe and watch out for each other... Check it out:

What people are calling the "50 YEAR STORM" hit Surfer's Point in Ventura!


Torrential rainfall hit Southern California Thursday morning as a “bomb cyclone” delivered as expected. Rain totals exceeded 2 inches in some areas of Los Angeles County by mid-morning with higher totals in the mountains and coastal valleys of Ventura County. The National Weather Service said the storm produced up to 1.25 inches of rain per hour in some locations.




Just a day after a high surf warning was implemented for beaches along the Southern California coast, in the wake of a huge storm, strong waves returned to Redondo Beach, creating flooding concerns for many. Lauren Pozen reports.


The Seal Beach Pier was closed by the city Friday due to damage sustained during this week's storm and associated high surf and wind.
