<\/p>\n
Hurricane Hilary has already proved deadly … triggering massive floods in Baja, Mexico and claiming at least one life.<\/p>\n
The storm hit in the town of Santa Rosalia and clearly packed an enormous punch, flooding streets and damaging or destroying property in its path.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You could feel the intensity from comments on social media .. “Holy sh** \ud83d\udc40 #HurricaneHilary Baja California, Mexico. I hope everyone\u2019s okay.”<\/p>\n
The good news … Hilary seems to be losing its intensity … it’s currently a category 1 hurricane but by the time it hits Cali later Sunday it will be downgraded to a category 4 storm — still intense, but not a hurricane.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There’s still a tropical storm warning for millions of folks in SoCal, and there’s fear it will cause flash flooding, as well as landslides.<\/p>\n
There are some areas of California that will get more rain in 24 hours than they usually get in a year. Palm Springs is particularly problematic.<\/p>\n
There’s also an alert for Catalina Island … 26 miles off the coast of Los Angeles.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It’s a weather event Cali hasn’t seen in more than 80 years.<\/p>\n
