Seal Beach – Big Waves, Friends, Crowds, and Chaos!

  • March 1, 2010
  • 0 Comment(s)

Yesterday Sunday February 28th 2010 was one of those days in Seal Beach history when everyone you know is out and about. The waves were the biggest of this winter, the weather was perfect and everyone was in a good mood! As usual when the waves get big and the tides are high all the local news vans show up and prepare for flooding etc… Sometimes it is a bit of a false alarm but yesterday didn’t disappoint. The water flowed from NorthSide over to SouthSide and filled up the area between the berm and the houses, in some places it was up to four feet deep. Mitchy Dejarnet even got the opportunity to paddle from NorthSide down to his house at Twelfth street (check the pic in our slide show). On Saturday there was a Tsunami warning from the terrible earthquake in Chile. It obviously never arrived but the tidal surge along with the big surf, and high tide made for this flooding. These are days that remind me of my youth since they only happen about every five to ten years with the most exciting one being back in 1983. That was the year when the Pier came down along with Esther the oil Island. They say it’s an El Nino Winter maybe it’s true!?

The images for the slide show were given to us by Jim “J.B.” Boswell. He takes some pretty amazing shots of the local surf, check out his site JB Photography.
