"Zuma OLs and B&H staff work feverishly to relocate several towers in anticipation of very high tides and high surf in the next couple of days as a result of Hurricane Marie.
With a 6.7 high tide hitting tonight at 2150, a 5.9 and 6.4 highs on Tuesday and a pair of 6.0 high tides on Wednesday, when paired with 10-15 foot waves, coastal flooding is likely. "This could be the largest surf event seen in recent years," says the National Weather Service in Oxnard.
The National Weather Service says Hurricane Marie will "likely bring a damaging high surf event to parts of the southern California coast this week." The NWS is calling for 10-15 foot breakers on south and southeast facing beaches.
