Big surf roared into Southern California as a winter swell built up through the day; it’s expected to stick around through Friday.

Another new swell is expected to arrive right behind it on Saturday with even bigger waves anticipated, creating hazardous conditions throughout the weekend but a thrilling end for expert surfers enjoying the last waves of 2023.
