Nice big waves for the surfers. Of course, California is renown for some of the biggest surf in the world.

Reminds me of this blast from the past.

Re: Huge 50 Foot 'New Zealand Waves' hitting California - 1 KIlled - Rare Event Alert
wonder if they could get bigger if atmosphere and weather trends continue.
maybe this is what the goverment is planning for, rogue 100 to 300 foot waves hitting west coast...
sounds like it would make a good movie, again....
 Quoting: Number 1



This is just the beginning. 50 feet waves are nothing compared to what will happen soon. Both of the energy vortex that are permanently parked at both North and South poles are getting stronger. As these vortex increase in strength and intensity, they will cause enormous weather changes on the planet. These are the two main forces of weather systems on the planet and it is from these vortexes that the Ice Age will emerge from.

Dress warm, stay above 2,000 feet level, and drink lots of water.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1506893


It's like you people are dense or something. These threads read like this:

"Santa Claus is coming!"

"Uh, there's no such thing as Santa Claus"

"There's video on YouTube of Santa Claus in a mall. Shin this pit!!!"

"Seriously, Santa Claus is a story made up to keep kids in line during the holidays. He used to eat them, now he withholds gifts for bad behavior."

"We should all pray! Santa Claus is coming!"

"I predict a worldwide showing of Santa Claus"

"Santa Claus in Vanatu!"

Seriously.

There may have been some larger waves created by the earthquake on Vanuatu yesterday:

Plate movement causes a lot of waters what is displaced.
Plates bounce to each other or stretch apart from each other and the water needs to go somewhere,
so then you get this rogue waves.

there is more to come...

and The United States

The New Madrid adjustment will affect so much area, in a domino manner, that it will not be a single large quake, but a series, separated by weeks and months. The primary adjustment will be within days, after shocks for weeks, but months later still, adjustments. The New Madrid is associated with fault lines that run up toward the Great Lakes, Chicago will adjust and rupture, Ohio will be pulled in places, and as we have explained, the land to the West of the Mississippi will sink in places. There is a known fault line that runs from the center of the Gulf up along the East Coast, thus the effect in 1811-12 in the Carolinas and DC on up to Boston. Then, as we have explained, there will be a bow from San Diego out to Arizona, which will rupture the great dam on the Colorado. When this bow, which forces Mexico too far to the West for the comfort of the West Coast, adjustes, it will be a slip-slide adjustment of the San Andreas and related fault lines up the coast.

[link to poleshift.ning.com]

We have stated that the Atlantic Rift will react to a the major adjustment in the New Madrid Fault promptly, within hours, and a tsunami travels within hours to its destination. To gain time, you could effect a white lie, calling them to explain that you heard there is a tsunami warning for the European coastline, but the alert is being delayed for verification or some such. Take care to do this only after the big New Madrid adjustment, following major 8+ quakes in Japan, or you will be accused of crying wolf too often.

This is great when people from an area speak up with REAL FACTS.

Thank you New Zealander.

In SoCal, the waves are only 15 feet. Large, but NOT unique at all.

maybe the event is over now? I did a google search on cali surf conditions and got no 50 waves anywhere. Either I missed it or something is up. Anyone find any webcams? I had no luck.
