2014 El Nino Storm Surf, Round #2...


It's here... and it's building!... The swell is already here ahead of the second El Nino generated Pacific Storm anticipated to hit our coastline this evening...

Check out this gnarly graphic!...

We could see the lines of the swell this morning even at Will Rogers Tower #8.

Later at approximately 11 a.m., we scouted out the swell at the Venice Pier... and here is what we saw.  In this regard, we offer the following photos and videos to corroborate same...  Enjoy!


Beaches & Harbors has been busy... check out the berms of sand built up on both sides of the pier...



The building swell...

... and then after grabbing a cup of coffee at the nearby Cow's End Coffee House, we sauntered back to the Venice Pier and spotted a LACo OLS about to launch a Dept. JetSki for some training time in the storm generated surf!  Check out the videos below in this regard.
