The Seal Beach Oil Platform Rig comes to life with breaking surf on 1/18/2019 approx 1.6 miles offshore! • I tried to do some research on the operations of this structure, if you have any details leave a comment and help out in the comment section, then I will update description. • What I do know, it's a very rare site to get rideable smooth surf, but can get really good!! • Your best chance is winter months, Dec, Jan, Feb, those minus negative tides will help making January your best bet. • In this video after 4 straight days and nights of steady rain and very poor surfing conditions, skies started to clear late night time early morning with light variable winds, leaning slightly offshore east around sunrise 6:55a.m. • Air temp lows a.m. about 45 p.m. high 62 and a water temp about 57.5 degrees and mostly sunny. • With all the leftover moisture on the ground seemed to rebuild a cloud and some light fog cover until about 8:45am most areas after the sun came up. • The swell starting to fill in nicely behind the storm fronts from a WSW direction 260-265 approx getting right into Seal Beach. • The tide was high about 7:04a.m I think 6.2 maybe 6.7 ? making a great shorebreak session for the rip shredders putting their bodies and necks on the line at 13th street. • There were a few 14th street thick mush wedge type cappers bouncing off the south jetty outside that ended in a brutal board breaking shorebreak, but the wait and consistency was too long with no takers until the tide dropped further creating more of a consistent outside good size cloud cruiser wave, although less shore pound. • By the time around 11:00am the wind was still light although side onshore SE, the outside cloud break starting getting fairly consistent with up to about 5-8 guys out through the remainder few hours. • The San Pedro Buoy peaked about 3:00am with a 9.2 feet 18 secs, then held 8's and '7's through out the day, the wind almost stopped at times but stayed about 5-7mph turning SW late afternoon. • Low tide was at 1:43pm -1.3 feet and slightly before that is when I started to see something way out there through the tough sun glare! • After it past slightly to the west approx 1:15p,m. I zoomed in and caught those few waves you see here in the video. • To my surprised after the tide turned around incoming, by 2:20pm the waves really started to soften instead of a last increase push to what I was expecting the oil rig shutdown and back to sleep maybe for the next 8-10 years? • Seal inside bay beach breaks remained fairly decent till sunset 5:08p,m approx with light winds, it was an awesome day overall! • Visit my YouTube channel home page henryssurfshowcase for more beach and surf videos. • Hit that red Subscribe button really helps out to bring them to you! • If you want notifications when uploads are in, hit that Bell icon • Here's a link in blue, thanks for visiting! • / surfingsoutherncalif • T Shirts beach and surf merch available for this channel. • Check in often as new products will be added, I very much appreciate your purchases and support, here's the link.. • https://teespring.com/stores/henryssu...
