Tropical Storm Hilary poured rain across Southern California, leaving millions of people at risk of flooding and thousands without power. Follow live updates.
A vehicle drives through a flooded intersection as tropical storm Hilary makes landfall in Palm Springs, Calif., on Sunday.
Hilary, the first tropical storm to hit southern California in over 80 years, dropped as much as 7 inches of rainwater in some mountain regions and up to 4 inches in lower-lying areas as it moved across the state on Monday.The storm traveled from northern Baja California in Mexico into the United States, drenching California along the coast, in the mountains and in the Coachella Valley, home to the desert city of Palm Springs.
The National Weather Service cautioned that heavy rain had passed in some areas, such as Ventura County, but lighter rain still posed potentially deadly threats. Just after midnight, it reported that rain was falling at 0.5 to 1 inch per hour in the San Gabriel Mountains in Los Angeles, and that rock and mudslides were occurring.
The center of the storm is expected to travel north through Nevada today. Officials in Las Vegas warned of wind gusts of up to 75 mph. Flash flood warnings will remain in effect there until 6:30 a.m. PDT.
