I don\u2019t know the beach, so that\u2019s fine with me,\u201d he said.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Ray Moreno, 37, said he had a scare \u2014 and a lesson \u2014 Tuesday evening at about 5 p.m. in Laguna Beach, just hours before the young girl went missing at Treasure Island. He had just moved back to the beach town that morning, he said, wanting to mark his return in the ocean.<\/p>\n<p>Moreno has done long paddles, has been working on his cardio lately and said he felt confident in his ocean ability \u2014 until he felt the wave give a subtle pull out to sea. He tried to swim diagonally, the way he had been told to get out of a rip current.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI couldn\u2019t, the waves just kept coming, they were breaking and smashing on me,\u201d Moreno said. \u201cI even got pulled under at one point.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Realizing he was struggling, he started waving his arms. A lifeguard with a buoy was quickly by his side, instructing him to hold onto the flotation device and swim backwards, Moreno said, the guard pulling him toward the shore.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cI had never experienced that in my life, I never thought I would,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>When they reached the shore, Moreno said he embraced the lifeguard and thanked him. He started clapping for the guard, other beachgoers around them who watched the scene unfold joining the praise for the rescue, just one of the many that have happened along Southern California beaches the past week.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe risked his life. I didn\u2019t go out there with the intention of being reckless. I just underestimated it,\u201d Moreno said. \u201cI\u2019m glad to be alive. It was a humbling experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alexis Garcia and daughter Aubree, 11, were enjoying a day at the beach at Christmas Cove in Laguna Beach on Wednesday, with the big waves keeping them on dry sand.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s just very scary. You can see the ocean is kind of deceiving,\u201d Garcia said. \u201cI don\u2019t want anything to happen to my children, or anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Christina Roberts, visiting from Chicago with daughter Madison, 6, was on her third day at the beach in front of their hotel, the Montage, each day hoping the big surf would ease up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe first day, she wanted to put her feet in. The waves were too scary, and people were starting to get pulled in,\u201d she said. \u201cLifeguards were telling people not to go in and they would pull back. She\u2019s so little, it was too dangerous for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Roberts said she heard the sound of the ambulances Tuesday evening, and a person being brought up the beach on a stretcher and a helicopter searching past midnight.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=14028\">Trump accuses Democrats of hypocrisy on Platner, despite questions about his own conduct<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve never seen anything like this before,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Surfline, a Huntington Beach-based company that tracks swells and waves around the world, has early buoy analysis that indicates the latest south swell could be the largest since July 2009, and possibly slightly bigger than even that swell, according to lead forecaster Kevin Wallis.<\/p>\n<p>It looks to be falling just short of the April 2007 swell, in terms of swell height on the buoys, Wallis said. The swell originated from a huge storm in the central South Pacific, he said.<\/p>\n<p>In Newport Beach, city crews built berms to protect homes on the Newport Peninsula from flooding. And in San Clemente, the pier was closed until Wednesday afternoon as waves reached its underside and appeared to break off some wood and wash it to shore.<\/p>\n<p>The National Weather Service issued a \u201cbeach hazard statement\u201d for the Southern California coast through Thursday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>The size of the waves will drop slightly on Thursday as the swell starts to fade, though they will still be hazardous in the 6- to 8-foot range at south-facing beaches and larger still at the Wedge. Surf will drop to 5 feet to 7 feet on Friday and Saturday, before bumping back up to 6-to-8 feet through next Wednesday, according to Surfline.com.<\/p>\n<p>The surf in Los Angeles County, while large, wasn\u2019t as big as Orange County due to offshore islands blocking the swells into the Santa Monica Bay, said Los Angeles Fire Department Lifeguard Capt. Pono Barnes.<\/p>\n<p>The largest waves were in the 4- to 6-foot range at Malibu, Zuma and other south-facing beaches, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Last weekend had an estimated 140 rescues, but with schools letting out this week and weather warming, Barnes said he expects that number to be greater heading into the  weekend.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is kind of like the perfect storm \u2013 we will have hot weather, surf and some significant tidal swing \u2013 and the people factor,\u201d Barnes said. \u201cEverything will be coming into alignment for a pretty busy weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The department\u2019s summer season schedule starts this weekend, so all towers will be staffed and lifeguards will be added as needed at L.A. County beaches.<\/p>\n<p>Carissa Rice, field educational coordinator for the Laguna Ocean Foundation, was in Laguna Beach on Wednesday with about 50 children from Fullerton to give lessons on the beach. The hope was to visit the tide pools, but the conditions were not safe enough to get on the rocks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know they are disappointed, not being able to see the creatures. But safety is our priority,\u201d Rice said, noting the group works closely with the lifeguards to assess conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the group did a beach cleanup to pick up small pieces of trash and Styrofoam washed up by the waves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnder safer conditions, if we were walking and got our feet wet, it\u2019s typically no big deal. But when you\u2019re walking out here and see the water looking like ice cream, it\u2019s not ideal for us,\u201d Rice said of the  foamy whitewash.<\/p>\n<p>Even though lifeguards do a great job, it\u2019s difficult to guard every section of beach, Rice said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCheck in with the lifeguards when you go to beaches,\u201d she said. \u201cBe honest with our individual abilities. If you\u2019re not a good, confident swimmer, maybe don\u2019t do certain things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And always, watch out for others, Rice noted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we all have a little bit of responsibility to each other and our fellow humans.\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=14026\">Thanks, El Ni\u00f1o: Even fewer storms now expected in \u2018below normal\u2019 hurricane season<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Early buoy analysis shows this could be the largest south swell to hit the region since 2007, according to Surfline forecast experts. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14031,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[43,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14037","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-based-on-facts-either-observed-and-verified-directly-by-the-reporter-or-reported-and-verified-from-knowledgeable-sources","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
