Long Beach residents have been left devastated after powerful waves from Tropical Storm Rachel battered their multimillion-dollar beachfront homes, destroying properties, forcing families to evacuate and ripping apart a century-old boardwalk as yet another storm slammed Southern California. The destruction unfolded along the city’s Alamitos Peninsula, where massive waves tore through wooden sections of the historic waterfront boardwalk, sending seawater rushing into homes and streets. At least eight buildings representing 13 addresses were red-tagged as unsafe to enter, while another was yellow-tagged, allowing residents limited access to retrieve their belongings, according to Long Beach Mayor Rex Richardson.
