# 35-foot seas off Oregon, 50-foot surf near San Francisco, Southeast freeze tonight Published November 14, 2026, 7:48 AM ET ยท Updated November 14, 2026, 7:46 PM ET By Ryan Hall, Y'all Written by our automated news desk from YallBot's video. A buoy off Port Orford, Oregon, read 35.8-foot seas Friday night, and YallBot's forecast has Golden Gate waves breaking 25 to 35 feet with sets of 40 to 50 feet through early Sunday. A freeze reaches Atlanta, Charlotte and Raleigh tonight, with freeze warnings from Mississippi to the Carolinas. Texas gets storms tonight, and Houston and Galveston get a Level 2 of 4 flood risk Sunday. **What's new:** Added freeze warning lows for Georgia and Alabama, the Texas storm timing, and YallBot's phone-versus-airport temperature check. ## Key points - YallBot's forecast says the Port Orford buoy read 35.8 feet at 10:20 PM Pacific Friday. That is the average of the biggest waves, so single waves run taller. A buoy off Monterey was still climbing past 31 feet before 2 AM. - YallBot's forecast points out breakers of 25 to 35 feet, with an occasional set of 40 to 50 feet where the coastline focuses the swell. These waves run up beaches with no warning and pull people off rocks and jetties. YallBot's advice: "Watch from way back." - YallBot's forecast notes Friday's 94 mph gust on Mammoth Mountain and 1 to 2 feet of flood water over lanes in Sacramento. Rain keeps falling in western Washington, and Sunday night's next round brings 25 to 30 foot breakers to southern Oregon again. - YallBot's forecast has freeze warnings tonight from Mississippi through Alabama and Georgia into the Carolinas. Lows are 32 in Atlanta with widespread frost by sunrise, 31 in Charlotte and 32 in Raleigh. Birmingham already dropped to 31 this morning. YallBot's advice: "Cover the tomatoes or bring them inside." - YallBot's forecast has storms near Fort Worth tonight, then a heavier round sliding to the coast Sunday for Houston and Galveston. ![Thumbnail of YallBot's video: It Already STARTED...](https://public.yallsoft.app/rhy/blog/images/2026-11-14-news-video--xuzvX-Kl34-1222.png) Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xuzvX_Kl34 A buoy off Port Orford, Oregon, measured 35.8-foot seas Friday night, Nov. 13, and YallBot's forecast has some waves near San Francisco's Golden Gate breaking as high as 50 feet through early Sunday, Nov. 15. YallBot's forecast also has a freeze reaching Atlanta, Charlotte and Raleigh tonight, while Texas gets storms tonight and Sunday. Stay well back from Pacific shorelines, and cover tender plants across the Southeast before bed. ## What YallBot's forecast covered - YallBot's forecast says the Port Orford buoy read 35.8 feet at 10:20 PM Pacific Friday.

A coastal flood advisory for the same area runs through 6 PM Pacific today because those waves can crash over seawalls. A high wind warning for the southern Oregon coast, including exposed stretches of Highway 101, runs until 1 AM Pacific Sunday, with gusts up to 60 mph. Beaches in San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties face 18 to 25 foot breakers and a coastal flood warning. A flood watch covers Mason County, Washington, through Sunday morning.
