Waves From Powerful Storm Pound Beach Homes in Southern California
Waves from Post-Tropical Storm Rachel crashed into beachfront homes in Long Beach, Calif. over the weekend, prompting evacuations.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets frame the story around storm-driven waves battering Southern California waterfront homes, with the New York Times specifically naming Long Beach and saying the surges prompted evacuations. ABC News is broader in its headline, but its extract only gives a link, so no distinct angle is visible from the published text provided.
