Huge 'New Zealand Swell' Hitting California |
|
Massive waves slamming into California's coast - killing at least one person and causing millions of dollars in damage - are being labelled the "New Zealand surf" because of where they are coming from.
In a rare event, a big weather system between New Zealand and Antarctica has generated a heavy Pacific wide swell, bringing the waves to California.
watch out for Rip currents California

And Surfline is pretty thin on facts. Where'd you get this info?

4. I've always thought New Zealand is "swell". . . |

There's no need for them to hit me for it.
