1. Santa Cruz waves are causing actual damage.

[ej510]

2. Boats are being overturned and swashed out to sea.

[ej510]

3. Kicking

[uppityperson]

4. If boats and harbors are the only damage, it is bad but not so bad. Thanks for the link

[ej510]

6. Its not bad but it is millions of dollars in damages plus oil and gas going into the bay

which kill sea life.

[uppityperson]

8. I agree, it will be a mess. Glad it isn't worse.

[MountainLaurel]

5. Thank you

Trying to keep informed.

[ej510]

7. Your welcome.

[ej510]

9. Surfers had to be rescued.

16. Stupid fuckers should be billed for it

Like there haven't been warnings all morning? Assholes.

[ej510]

18. You know these morons heard about two to four foot waves and wanted to ride them.

10. Holy mackeral!

...I thought this was relatively minor, but this looks anything but minor..

[ej510]

11. Yeah it is destroying the Santa Cruz harbor.

[uppityperson]

12. Even a foot of water has a lot of power behind it.

[ej510]

13. They are evacuating Santa Cruz, that says a lot.

[uppityperson]

17. Low lying and beach front areas, but not all of Santa Cruz.

No need to exaggerate what's happening. Downtown is low, so they evacuated that but there is a LOT of town that is nowhere near any problems.

Yes, the harbor looks like a mess.

[ej510]

19. I am sorry I didn't mean to come that way. My bad.

[uppityperson]

20. Trying to check in with friends who have small boat in bay on OR coast, hoping it didnt'

get smushed.

The media is trying to OMG this, make it all OMG and sexy so people will keep watching. It is what it is, a mess in some places but not OMG for most of it. Have you heard from Crescent City yet?

[ej510]

21. Nope, but will keep an out for it.

[dixiegrrrrl]

14. Excellent site. Thank you.

We have family in that area.

[ej510]

15. I am SF Bay Area born and raised. I love the bay.

[Skidmore]

22. My son lives in Oakland. Has that area been affected?

I haven't been there since he moved to his job. I'm a little worried. Tried to call him but was unable to reach him.

[Hell Hath No Fury]

24. He should be just fine.

Oakland in on the bay side, not ocean side. I am just a block from the SF bay side directly across from Oakland and everything so far is just fine. Not to worry!

[Skidmore]

25. Thank you for the reassurance.

[AsahinaKimi]

23. I am less then 1 mile from the beach

I know the Great Highway was closed, but from Reports I heard on KGO Radio, the waves here were a tiny bit larger then normal, other wise, Its been a fairly decent day.
