A surf report broke loose. FOX 11 Los Angeles posted "SoCal residents brace for swells from Hurricane Polo" on Monday, and in its first day it moved at roughly seventy-eight times the pace a new video on the channel usually manages.

For the station, that is far outside the ordinary. FOX 11 is KTTV, the Los Angeles station owned by Fox itself, and its channel carries clips from its locally produced programming. A new upload there normally starts gently. This one did not.

The report is useful rather than dramatic. It covers a high surf advisory and a coastal flood advisory, with waves of 4 to 7 feet possible on south-facing beaches through Tuesday, and its tags point to Long Beach. Southern California rarely takes a hurricane head-on. What usually reaches the coast is the swell, and the swell is exactly what this story is about.
