LOS ANGELES — Powerful surf pounded California beaches as the Labor Day weekend got underway Saturday, creating dangerous swimming conditions for the crowds flocking to the ocean for the holiday.

The National Weather Service extended high-surf advisories through tonight, warning that 6- to 8-foot waves, with occasional 10-foot sets, would hit the coast from San Francisco to San Diego.

Beachgoers were urged to swim only near lifeguards.
