| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A strong trough and associated Pacific cold front swept into Southern California from the west, bringing strong winds, heavy snow and rain. The storm was noteworthy for the strong prefrontal southerly winds that produced significant tree damage over the coast and valleys. In the mountains the ski resorts received 1-2 ft of snow, while elevations as low as 5,000 ft saw a few inches of accumulation. Rainfall ranged from 2-6 inches along the coastal slopes to 1-2 inches at the coast. At the beaches surf heights reached 8 to 12 ft. Damages, primarily from wind, reached into the millions of dollars. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | Lifeguards reported sets of 8-12 ft at Laguna Beach and 10-15 ft at San Clemente Beach. Sets near 10 ft were also reported in Newport Beach. |
