Beach cities brace for Polo; CBS LA's report takes off
A day after the Long Beach emergency story, a morning segment on swells and erosion is moving faster than the whole channel usually does.

Southern California beach cities prepare for remnants of Hurricane Polo
The storm coverage kept going. A day after its report on Long Beach's emergency ahead of Hurricane Polo, CBS LA posted a wider look at the coast, and it opened at roughly 150 times the pace of a normal first day on the channel.
That is not a small channel having a lucky hour. CBS LA already draws hundreds of thousands of views on an ordinary day across everything it posts, and this one segment is running faster than that entire routine. FOX 11 Los Angeles, the other LA station among the big local channels, is a little under its usual pace.
The video, "Southern California beach cities prepare for remnants of Hurricane Polo," is practical rather than dramatic. Over the next few days, the region's beach towns are on alert as what is left of the storm is expected to bring strong swells and coastal erosion. Hurricane remnants reaching Southern California are uncommon enough to make news on their own. This report aired on KCAL News Mornings, the station's morning program.
