Yeah, my GF text me and said there was a Tornado Watch. I thought she was joking. Turns out it was true! She recorded some footage from her office window (Newport Beach). I was reading the news, it was said Newport had gusts of up to 72mph.

PM REGIONAL OVERVIEW: Solid, generally sloppy surf, and VAS conditions prevail this afternoon as our W/NW swell mix builds further. Better breaks across the region have solid overhead surf, with double-overhead+ sets at standout exposures. Not looking like a surf afternoon.
