Rip Current in Ventura County, California
Rip Current January 3, 1999 · Ventura County, California
The wider storm
Gusty Santa Ana winds fueled a brush fire in the San Fernando Valley, north of Granada Hills. Over 600 acres of land was burned, but no injuries or property damage was reported. The Santa Ana winds also produced deadly rip currents across the Southern California coastal waters. In the Channel Islands Harbour, four people were injured and two more were killed when the rip currents flipped over their outrigger canoe.
