🌀 Rare tropical storm threat for Southwest

Forecast rainfall totals associated with Hurricane Hilary through Tuesday, Aug. 22. Image: Weatherbell.com. Southern California is bracing for its first tropical storm in more than 80 years and potentially unheard-of rainfall for this time of year, Axios extreme weather expert Andrew Freedman writes. Hurricane Hilary — expected to hit the Southwest as a tropical storm or post-tropical system — is likely to flood desert areas with up to a year's worth of rainfall in two to three days. What's happening: Tropical storm force winds could arrive near San Diego late Sunday or early Monday. 🔎 Between the lines: It's extremely rare for a tropical storm or hurricane to make landfall in Southern California, which is protected by relatively cool ocean waters. The last tropical storm to make landfall there struck in 1939. Get the latest.

Southern California braces for more floods as tropical storm soaks region from coast to desert Tropical Storm Hilary drenched Southern California from the coast to inland mountains and deserts Sunday evening, prompting rescues from swollen rivers and forcing some of the nation’s largest school districts to cancel Monday classes. Read more.

Why this matters: Hilary is the first tropical storm to hit Southern California in 84 years, bringing intensifying rain, with some mountain and desert areas seeing more than half an average year's worth of rain in just one day.   Palm Springs had nearly 3 inches of rain by Sunday evening as forecasters warned of dangerous flash floods across Los Angeles and Ventura counties. The city’s police said 911 lines were down Sunday and advised texting 911 or directly contacting the nearest police or fire station. In an encampment along the San Diego River, emergency officials rescued 13 people from knee-deep water.

⚠️ Once-in-a-lifetime L.A. flooding

Photo: Mark J. Terrill/AP This is Palm Desert, Calif., yesterday, with vehicles crossing a flood-control basin where the water level has almost reached the roadway. Southern California was battling flash flooding and unheard-of rainfall rates in the middle of the desert after Tropical Storm Hilary made landfall in Mexico's Baja California, Axios' Andrew Freedman reports. Cars stalled in floodwater in North Hollywood. L.A. schools are closed today. National Weather Service map issued 4:45 a.m. ET today. An unrelated earthquake — magnitude: 5.1 — hit yesterday near Ojai, in Ventura County. Little damage was reported. Californians who thought they'd seen it all can now say they survived a "hurriquake." Get the latest ... More photos ... L.A.

As Tropical Storm Hilary shrinks, towns dig out of the mud Crews worked to dig roads, buildings and residents out of the mud across a wide swath of the U.S. Southwestern desert Monday, as the first tropical storm to hit Southern California in 84 years headed north, prompting flood watches and warnings in half a dozen states. Read more.

Why this matters: Hilary first slammed into Mexico’s arid Baja California Peninsula as a hurricane, causing one death and widespread flooding. So far, no deaths have been reported in California, though officials warned that risks remain, especially in the mountainous regions where the wet hillsides could unleash mudslides.   In one dramatic scene, rescue officials in the desert community of Cathedral City, near Palm Springs, drove a bulldozer through mud to a swamped care home and rescued 14 residents by scooping them up and carrying them to safety, Fire Chief Michael Contreras said.
