The evacuation affects residents along Seaside Walk between 63rd and 67th places, a section of the Long Beach Peninsula particularly vulnerable to high surf due to its location near a gap in the Alamitos Bay jetty and breakwater. The structural integrity of several homes is in question, and streets in the area remain closed as cleanup efforts continue. The ongoing high tides and potential for additional wave damage pose risks to property and safety. This event highlights the increasing vulnerability of coastal areas to extreme weather, exacerbated by an exceptionally strong El Niño and rising sea levels.
