Gov. Gruelsom Newsom announced Monday that the next stage of reopening California's economy will begin as early as Friday. This is what they are referring to as "Stage 2".

Newsom's "Stage 2" of reopening will allow for retail business to open for curbside pick-up only. Businesses such as book stores, clothing stores, sporting goods, toy stores and florists, will be allowed to re-open, given they follow additional safety and hygiene protocols that will be released Thursday, Newsom claims.

Surf shops fall under the clothing and sporting goods categories.

Shopping malls will not be allowed to reopen.

But Newsom also emphasized that local officials still have the authority to accelerate or slow down reopening at the county level.

Thursday morning at approximately 9:40AM, Lifeguards attempted to rescue a beached dolphin just north of the Venice Pier.

Six12 Media was there as it happened and was uploading video footage to our Instagram Stories live as it happened.

The dolphin swam thru the red tide waves straight to the shore, said the lady who first saw it.




The lifeguards did their best to get the sling over to be able to carry dolphin back out to the water.



As the dolphin was about to be carried out via the sling, Marine Animal Rescue’s Peter Wallerstein arrived, and check out the dolphin. Wallerstein announce that the dolphin had passed away already.




The dolphin was then removed from the beach by a front loader(tractor).

Last week, the city of Santa Monica said the new parking restiction at Bay Street was only ging to be for that weekend due to the warm weather. And those restrictions were lifted the following Monday. But they just put them back today. So It seems like this is going to happen every weekend now, regardless of the weather.

Vehicles with a displayed residential parking permit from within a two block radius can park at the bagged meters and will not be cited or towed.

Huntington Beach's beach closure started today, but surfers and bodyboarders were still seen in the water getting waves this morning. Several pro surfers were spotted out there too.

Brooke Daigneault came out of the water as the police drove by. She said, "Well, I just waved to the police officer, he waved back. So I guess we're cool." And then she went back out again.

Keanu Igarashi was one of the surfers who surfed this morning. Keanu said the police told him they weren’t sure of what to do, they are in a hard spot in this situation. The city is fighting the governor’s order to close the beach.

Some claim the police may have been more focused on the then upcoming protest march to bother with the surfers, others feel the cops just don't want to deal with this crap.
