Difference is waves like that happen this time of year on a regular basis up there. Big winter storms in the North Pacific send out huge seas which ultimately hit certain areas of northern ca. Mavericks, Ocean beach, Ghost Tree amongst others. Difference is most of the storms up there are way heavier then what you see coming up from mexico during our summer time so the effects we see here are not quite as dramatic. Now Cortes Bank...thats a diff story.
