Lifeguards made 187 rescues at Los Angeles County beaches Tuesday -- 88 of them at Venice Beach alone.
The rescues unfolded as an estimated 255,000 people visited county beaches, trying to escape the intense heat wave that has gripped Los Angeles this week. The beaches were experiencing powerful rip currents Tuesday, and some swimmers underestimated their pull.
Rip currents occur as incoming surf traps water near the shoreline. The water then flows along the shore until it reaches a dip in the floor, which channels the water back out to sea, creating a fast-moving current that can snare swimmers.
To escape a rip current, officials say swimmers should allow themselves to be carried seaward until the current weakens, then swim parallel to the beach until out of its grasp.
A powerful storm near New Zealand has been pounding California's coastlinewith higher than normal surf and unusually strong rip currents, said National Weather Service meteorologist Stuart Seto.
The storms wind is pushing swells north, where about five days later they hit the West Coast, Seto said. By the time the swells hit L.A. County beaches, theyre more spread out than a typical wave set and have more energy.
A normal swell may crash into the California coast every 10 seconds, but the New Zealandweather system is spreading them out to up to 17 seconds, Seto said. The longer set times create strong rip currents that can more easily pull swimmers out to sea.
Waves are currently peaking at about 5 feet, Seto said.
Tuesdays rescues only added to what has become an exceptionally busy year for county lifeguards.
An estimated 61.4 million people have visited area beaches since the beginning of the year, about 7 million more than the average, county officials announced last week. During that time, lifeguards have performed more than 11,600 rescues.

187 beach rescues in one day amid rip currents: How to save yourself

THE Gold Coast would lose its beaches. Sydneys Opera House would flood every day instead of every 100 years. And 48,000 Victorian homes would be swallowed. All by the end of the century.
Theyre the predictions in the latest report by the Climate Council, which assesses the nations vulnerability to rising sea levels by 2100.
The report Counting the Costs: Climate Change and Coastal Flooding, warns that more than half the Australian coastline is vulnerable to recession from the rising ocean, with 80 per cent of the Victorian coast and 62 per cent of the Queensland coast at risk.

Authors of the report suggest the Gold Coast, which hosts over 11 million visitors a year could be the hardest hit.
The beach is one of the main drawcards for visitors and as sea levels rise, there is no opportunity for the beach to move landward because of the adjacent high-rise developments.
Rising sea levels would also cause headaches for Sydney, with todays one-in-100-year flood to occur every day or so by 2100.

The public is invited for a free viewing of nebulae and star clusters from 8 to 10 p.m. Sept. 26 at Moundville Archaeological Park.
The viewing is being organized by the University of Alabamas astronomy group within the department of physics and astronomy.
The deep-sky observing sessions use portable computer-controlled telescopes.
The telescopes will be set up in the field across the road from the Moundville Archaeological Park museum.
Parking will be available at the museum and near the conference center overlooking the Black Warrior River.
The event will be hosted by Ron Buta and Bill Keel, professors of astronomy.
For more information, call 205-348-5050. People with large groups need to contact the office for accommodation.

Kansas University assistant professor of astronomy and astrophysics, Gregory Rudnick gives a lecture on Friday, May 3, 2013 in Malott Hall.
Kansas University associate professor Gregory Rudnick was glad when the recent discovery of a distant galaxy in the process of forming made the news.
The mind-blowing factor of such discoveries always helps invigorate the publics interest in astronomy, and thats a good thing, said Rudnick, who teaches physics and astronomy at KU.
In this case, astronomers for the first time caught a glimpse of the earliest stages of massive galaxy construction, NASA announced last month. NASA described the site, nicknamed "Sparky," as a dense galactic core blazing with the light of millions of newborn stars that are forming at a ferocious rate.
Now for the mind-blowing part.
Sparky is so far away from us that light from it takes 11 billion years to reach the Earth talk about distant.
By comparison, light from the sun takes 8 minutes to reach us, and it is 93 million miles away from Earth, Rudnick said.
When the light left this galaxy, the sun was not even born yet, Rudnick said. Its crazy-far away.
Rudnick said he was on a team of scientists that helped discover similar galaxies that appeared to have already finished forming, which they documented in a 2013 paper. But he said information like how the objects looked before forming and exactly how far away they were was still a mystery.
