still happening in Santa Cruz.
You know slugrx, your comment struck me because the man that KRON 4 interviewed at the mass of cars and people up on the 92 and 35 junction was Latino. I mean my family just went up into El Granada cause the surge was about 3ft... I really wonder what the mix of ethnicity was up on 35 today...

That's pretty crazy, never seen that before. I heard there was an 8-9 foot swell in SC as well, crazy stuff..
