Hot and humid air is forecast to hold from the South Central states to the southern Atlantic Seaboard. Surf will remain rough along the mid-Atlantic coast due to Cristobal well offshore. Tropical downpours, locally gusty thunderstorms and rough surf will affect coastal Texas as a system moves in from the Gulf of Mexico. A corridor of heavy showers and thunderstorms will extend from western Texas to part of the Midwest.

Residents of about four blocks of homes along Seal Beach, south of Los Ange- les, swept seawater from ground-floor rooms after flooding overnight, and bulldozers reinforced a 6-foot-tall sand berm hast- ily built to protect shoreline structures. The berm — a measure normally not needed until winter storms — and the use of pumps prevented more water intrusion dur- ing the morning high tide, and another test was ex- pected close to midnight. Despite the danger, surf- ers and body-boarders flocked to favored spots such as the notorious Wedge at Newport Beach and Surfrider in Malibu, where a surfer died Tues- day after being pulled from the water. It was not clear whether the death was re- lated to the surf or a medi- cal condition. Extra lifeguards were on duty, and there were re- peated rescues. "It's very hectic, stormy and dangerous, really," said Scott Bosco, 26, who surfed Seal Beach for an hour but only managed to catch two waves because of the rough- ness. "You live for days like this. I'm definitely coming back later after school." Two cargo terminals at the Port of Long Beach stopped operations late Tuesday because 10- to 15-foot-high wave surges endangered the longshore workers, a port statement said. The powerful surge also tossed heavy rocks from a seawall onto a road, caus- ing damage and closing the roadway. On Santa Catalina Is- land south of Los Angeles, a heavy surge Tuesday night sent sand, water and even some 3,000-pound rocks into a boatyard, causing substantial damage and tossing some drydocked boats off their stands, Ava- lon Harbor Master Brian Bray said. The surge also tore away a floating children's swim platform and closed several docks to incoming traffic Wednesday, although Bray said most boaters chose to wait in mainland harbors for the surge to subside. WAVE SURGES Beachtownseesfloodingfromhurricane By Scott Smith The Associated Press FRESNO A U.S. Forest Service decision released Wednesday will allow log- gers to remove dead trees from 52 square miles of for- ests blackened last year in a massive central California wildfire, a move contested by environmentalists. The highly awaited deci- sion came amid a standoff between environmentalists and supporters of the tim- ber industry over what to do with trees that died in the Rim Fire, which started Aug. 17, 2013, and burned more than 400 square miles of the Stanislaus Na- tional Forest, Yosemite Na- tional Park's backcountry and private timber land. It destroyed 11 homes and cost more than $125 mil- lion to fight. Environmentalists had argued against logging the land, saying the blackened trees and new growth be- neath them create vital habitat for dwindling birds such as spotted owls and black-backed woodpeckers. "This is an ecological travesty," said Chad Han- son, a forest ecologist and founder of the John Muir Project. "It's basically an extinction plan for the Cal- ifornia spotted owl." Supporters of the tim- ber industry said logging would pay for replant- ing and restoring the for- est. Taking out dead trees will also allow the public to use the land, they say, and eliminate a new fire hazard caused by falling trees.
