Those high winds caused some damage at Dusty Rhodes Park at Nimitz and Sunset Cliffs in Ocean Beach where city workers discovered a downed tree measuring approximately 20 feet tall.

There was no damage to nearby cars or structures.

The winds are a result of a tropical storm system twirling out in the Pacific, west of Baja.

What used to be Hurricane Paul is now a disorganized mass that is generating clouds and wind for southern California.

The heaviest coastal winds occurred shortly after midnight, with sustained winds of 20 mph and gusts to 35.

β€œThough we will be extremely breezy at times today, near the coast, our winds should remain below the 30 mph advisory strength criteria,” Kodesh said.
