[0:00] out on a jetty, perhaps a half mile from
[0:03] where I sit, I watch waves easily
[0:05] crashing up and over a jetty that is
[0:08] minimally 10 ft tall. The waves pounding
[0:11] into the shore right now are getting up
[0:13] into the 5-ft area, and they will be
[0:15] well beyond that.
[0:16] see the lifeguard anymore. We don't know
[0:17] what happened. Either he got knocked
[0:18] down really quickly
[0:20] or he fell over out there. We're not
[0:22] We're not into the details. It's getting
[0:23] windy down here. It's no worse than it

[0:53] the surface. Often times, those rocks
[0:55] even stick up out of the surface. As a

[0:58] most times around this time of day,
[1:00] that's what you would see. You'd see the
[1:01] rocks sticking out. Well, if you go out
[1:03] there right now, what you see is that
[1:04] the rocks are actually about a foot and
[1:06] a half underneath the surface. That
[1:09] means that that tidal surge that we've
[1:10] been telling you so much about today
[1:12] and abo
