What role did the #climatecrisis play in #TropicalStormHilary – and could there be more like it?
Such storms landing on #California are extremely rare – but experts say they could become more common as the #ocean heats up https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/aug/21/california-hilary-storm-climate-crisis-explainer #climatechange #hurricane #tropicalstorm

Seemingly-odd rotation of clouds with thunderstorms around SJ/SF/Oak #BayArea is indirectly related to former #TropicalStormHilary. We're in the center of the low that directed Hilary north and away to our east. The high in the Midwest also funneled Hilary north. #weather #CAwx

Alaska Airlines Boeing 737-800 made a hard landing 11:15pm Sunday at Orange County/Santa Ana #KSNA California during #TropicalStormHilary. Landing gear collapsed. No injuries. Database entry by Aviation Safety Network. https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/344784 #aviation #avgeek

Alright you California jokers, Hilary is now a post tropical cyclone and the "eye" has moved into Nevada.

It's breezy here now as we get what's probably some of the last bands of wind and rain, tho she really spread out as she weakened but got faster so. 🤷🏻

Stay warm and dry! #CAwx #SoCalwx #hurricanehilary #tropicalstormhilary #posttropicalcyclone

8pm PT @NWSNHC update on #TropicalStormHilary indicates the storm wobbled to the west with the estimated center at 33.9° N 118.2° W, which is over Los Angeles north of Long Beach. Forecast to rapidly continue north to Nevada overnight. https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_ep4+shtml/000336.shtml?cone#contents #weather #CAwx #NVwx

All calm on Friday evening, before the storm.

This river almost never has water in it this time of year.

Sounds like an incident command at this address as well #Camarillo #flooding "Ventura 718 Trueno Ave **Provide Traffic Control** 6:32 PM #CHP #VenturaCounty #VC" #Hilary #TropicalStormHilary

One last video before it gets dark. Same arroyo from the same bridge, but looking downstream as it meanders east through a residential area.

Another view, this time of Arroyo Pico, a major tributary of the South Fork Santa Clara River. I’ve never seen it so flooded before.

5pm PT NHC update on #TropicalStormHilary shows not only is the center of the storm in California, but also almost all of SoCal is within the tropical-storm-force wind field. https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_ep4+shtml/000336.shtml?cone#contents #weather #CAwx

Had to run down the street to take my son's trash cans out (he's on duty). Should have worn rain pants. Last time I had that warm, wet, feeling I was at #Waikiki wading into the ocean (in swim shorts). Yes, had to change. #wet #Hilary #TropicalStormHilary

It's still raining. Literally non-stop for at least 11 or 12 hours so far. More to come. 🌀⛈️🌧️

Family in #SoCal just joked #huriquake and I joked back, let’s hope it’s not a #huriquakenado, and see it’s already been used as a #hashtag lol. #California #tropicalstormhilary
