Ventura County is expected to see waves as high as 12-18 feet, while waves on west to northwest-facing beaches in Los Angeles County will reach 8 -12 feet.
The National Weather Service warns of potentially damaging surf and coastal flooding, as a strong northwest swell brings high surf Tuesday, the peak day for the week. Beachgoers are warned to stay off rock walls and jetties as coastal flooding is possible on beach roads and in parking lots. High tide hit at 4:45 Tuesday morning, and returns at 5:35 p.m. The Ventura Pier was closed Sunday due to high surf warnings and will stay closed through Christmas Day.
Large waves already wreaked some havoc on the Northern California coastline Monday, leaving one person dead and another missing. Officials said that debris that washed up at Sunset State Beach in Santa Cruz County trapped a man and he later died from his injuries. At Marina State Beach in Monterey County, a man went missing after being pulled into the water by high surf.
