Surfers Face Big South Swell Amid Beach Dangers
Strong south swells from a Chilean storm and Tropical Storm Douglas off Mexico prompt lifeguards in Orange and Los Angeles counties to warn beachgoers. Waves reach 6-15 feet at venues like Malibu, Trestles, and Wedge, with rip currents and unsafe conditions leading to shore only swimming advised. Local lifeguards report preventive rescues but no major incidents.

How to ride out a rip current
Rip currents form when waves break unevenly and water moves in a circle before rushing seaward. To escape stay calm, tread water, swim parallel to shore, and only swim toward shore with the waves when able. Seek lifeguard guidance and never swim alone. Draw attention if unable to reach shore.
