Biggest Swell in Years to Hit Northern California Coast, With Breakers Up to 40 Feet Friday Night Into Saturday
A train of storms in the Gulf of Alaska will push the biggest surf in years toward the northern and central California coast, with breaking waves of 30 to 40 feet expected from Friday night, November 13, into Saturday, and significant wave heights of 20 to 30 feet offshore from San Francisco to Crescent City; individual offshore waves could exceed 50 feet. National Weather Service meteorologist Joe Merchant called the setup "pretty problematic," with seven or eight pulses of swell possible before Thanksgiving. The Weather Service warned that waves can sweep people off beaches, rocks and jetties without warning and urged the public to keep a safe distance. Mavericks, the famed big-wave break off Half Moon Bay, could see its first major swell of the season.
