Yes, I’m not into fear mongering but, I think the impact of this hurricane is going to be far worse than the media is letting on. I live in north west AZ and we’ve been having intense storms since last night (Thursday 8/17/23) and the brunt of the hurricane/tropical storm isn’t scheduled to arrive until late Sunday or Monday, which is still two days away.
@@Sunsun-ev2xd If the weather is heading your way, you could do a bit to prepare. Find the local, state, and federal emergency services and weather reporting sites on your phone and save the tabs or info in case any need for them arises. A battery-powered weather/emergency radio can offer info when little else can sometimes. Pack a bag with clothes, food, water, supplies, and what else you need for a few days, just in case you need to travel suddenly.
@dukefurst5741 Usually, if the news says it will be bad, it isn't bad. If the news says it won't be bad, that's your sign to prepare because it will be bad. So I think your right on the money!!!
@@Sunsun-ev2xd any family inland? Go a visit them. Or book a hotel for 1 day out of the danger zone. If nothing happens you go home. That way you don't put yourself or loved ones/pets in danger. It is better to be over prepared than under prepared.
I lived in Imperial Beach in the early 80's. Sewage from Mexico was always a problem and concern. Why hasn't something been done about it in the last 40 years?
It's Mexico that has to do the "something" about this sewage. It's certainly a violation of international law to pollute the wetlands and ocean in this manner.

@@QueerdoLoc Once in a lifetime my backside, this 'storm' pales in comparison to a lot of the winter storms we get, it won't do anything worse than those. Also, I've always said we should hand CA back to Mexico considering 3/4 of Mexico is already in CA, that would solve a lot of problems for both the US and Mexico.
For those curious, the most comparable event to hit this location was Hurricane Kathleen in 1976. It followed an almost identical path, as a hurricane before becoming a tropical storm, in the same way Hilary is predicted to. The notable difference is that Kathleen never generated an eye, while Hilary has discarded one and generated a second. Kathleen caused massive flooding of low-lying areas along with mudslides and flash floods from the mountains. The damage was considerable and expensive, with homes washed away, some towns destroyed, some flooded by 6 feet of mud and debris. People in low-lying areas should prepare to lose power and water and experience days of flooding. People along the coast should expect storm surge and potential damage to buildings in high winds. People in the valleys around the mountains should be prepared to evacuate due to mudslides and flash floods coming down from those mountains. The latter is the biggest concern IMO. I may be an amateur, but physics does not change. If those mountains experience a foot or more of rain, as some are expecting, those valleys will become channels for all that water and mud.
On February 14, 2019 heavy rain led to closures and water rescues across the Coachella Valley. 3.69” of rain fell at Palm Springs International Airport making it the wettest day on record ever recorded. I live in "The Pass" in banning CA. Right between the San Gorgonio Mountains, and The San Jacinto Mountains. Previously I lived in Cathedral City, right next to Palm Springs. I call the Feb 14 2019 event "THe Valentines Day Massacre". The rain coming off San Jacinto caused large sections of Rte 243, which goes up to Idyllwild (San Jacinto Mts which Palm Springs backs up to) to be washed away. Sand, mud and rocks did what they always have done for millenia. They washed downhill. You don't need a foot of water. The total annual rainfall in the Palm Springs area is very limited. In January and February, the average rainfall is about an inch or less each month. For the year, the average total rainfall in Palm Springs is about 5 inches-or less-for the yearly total. Rainwater here is not channeled by underground conduit like in other places, for instance Pennsylvania. Instead it is channeled above ground. In many places, a "wash" exists. A dry riverbed. They are usually flat. THey look like much of the rest of the desert. Until it rains. Many roads cross washes. One would barely notice driving into / across a slight depression in the ground, when it's dry. When it rains the fine particulate matter of the silicate soils turns into mud, and flows. It doesn't take much, and the "drainage systems" are overwhelmed. This is what is going to happen in the deserts and mountain communities adjacent to them. Additionally, there are plenty of steep mountains in SoCal. Humans have built all over them. Without much thought. Especially since there has been ongoing drought here for approximately 22 years. Climate overall has been trending dryer over the last 120 years. Fires fires have taken away the maritime chaparral biomes woody plants ( a natural cycle) and inland, many woody plants ( overgrown due to fire suppression) and trees, have been burnt down. Thus their root systems will not hold mountainsides and hillsides from becoming mud slides. My guess, having experienced such events in the past, is that 2-4 inches of rain over a short time period is going to expose homo sapiens penchant for development in areas susceptible to flooding, as ill advised. Perhaps a better word is ignorant. Unadvised? Mal -advised? Arrogant? Definitely this rainfall, if in excess of 4 inches, will expose the hubris of SOME of homo sapiens building practices and choices of location. Fortunately or unfortunately, insurance companies and banks have interwoven themselves into the fabric of our legal system. So most people should be insured (hopefully a rider for flood insurance beyond typical home insurance) . SOme are going to find out the hard way. C'est la guerre. They'll build more homes, there will be more humans. Cheers.
@Orcinus1967 Thanks for sharing your first-hand knowledge and experience about the lay of the land, hydrology, and climate in the Inland Empire and deserts around Southern California. I live in Oceanside but work in Riverside. I've spent at least 70 years living in Southern California. I expect mostly flooding and flash flooding in the mountains and deserts from Tropical Storm Hilary. We have been informed that severe flooding in Tijuana will cause raw, untreated sewage to flow into the ocean. I live in Loma Alta in Oceanside. The historic section of Oceanside was built up on this hill for very good reasons. You can look at maps that tell you how often a given property is likely to be totally submerged in the period of time known as a century, i.e., one hundred years. Nice to be atop a hill. We had no problems with recent extreme rainfall in 2019 - 2021. The neighborhood passed the test of time. No doubt, the Native Americans knew all of the areas where flooding was a problem. So did the Padres. Junipero Serra chose Oceanside for his personal headquarters at Mission San Luis Rey I always look to earlier cultures who were familiar with long-term rainfall patterns. We've been in a drought for 122 years so flooding has not been properly planned for in many communities. With rising sea levels, those who live on the beach have brought huge boulders and placed them between their homes and the ocean. This is a temporary fix. Retreat from global coastal areas will result in the largest human migrations in history. I lived at Swamis in Encinitas and had 100 mph winds hit my condo vack in 1991, or so.. I thought that the glass in the windows and sliding glass doors would not withstand that wind atop a sea cliff 75 feet above the ocean. I'm not worried except for rainfall on freeways. Riverside has good drainage. Lytle Creek might overflow its banks and water will run down from the hills of Ontario. That's expected. Dry stream beds and arroyos will fill up with mud slides, as you said.
I am from Jamaica and I pray for you. Move from low lines area to higher ground. Please don't ride out the storm. Cut trees from around the house. Take a photo before and after because the area will be drastically transformed. I am not sure if your houses are made from block and steal or pure board but in Jamaica most of our buildings are made from block and steal with some roofs slab and zinc. Slab roof is better and more secure.
Our houses are basically made of wood and chalk. Flexible lightweight material to withstand earthquakes. Definitely not made for the weather coming our way. Thanks for the prayers 🩵
Prayers for everyone in the path loved in Imperial Beach from early 80's til about mid 90's always had to check to see if the beach was ok to swim in and nothing has changed yet people think before you vote demand action not just promises

When I lived near Long Beach, I was CERT and did a lot of Emergency Preparedness Seminars tailored to the demographics of the audience/attendees. If you don’t have a Go Bag, start one now. Just start with what you have at home. Use an old back pack or duffle bag with a shoulder strap. Put in it, in smaller bags, your extra keys, insurance cards, extra Rx or supplements you need, small bills cash, first aid kit, change of clothes, sun hat, flash light… No canned goods- too heavy. Protein bars. Buy a gallon of distilled water and put a wide strap through the handle and to carry it sling over your shoulder. Tell your family now, your planned evacuation route and your back up plan.
Praying for everyone in the path of the hurricaneI'm from Texas abd we have these all the time but California I never heard of having hurricanes nothing but earthquakes 🙏
Be prepared. God takes care of those who take care of themselves. Many Christians fall into the trap of inactivity. Many Christians ask God for help, but then expect God to do everything Himself. They excuse this by pointing to the fact that God will provide according to His will and in His timing. However, this is not a reason for inactivity. If you are in an area susceptible to flooding, find shelter somewhere else. All the prayers on the world will not stop the water from rising. The reality of physics has a way of getting in the way of the myth of mythology.

The population has grown. During the 1920s, the border town’s population grew from 1028 to 8348 inhabitants. The current metro area population of Tijuana in 2023 is 2,260,000, a 1.76% increase from 2022. The metro area population of Tijuana in 2022 was 2,221,000, a 1.83% increase from 2021. The metro area population of Tijuana in 2021 was 2,181,000, a 1.92% increase from 2020. If 39,000 people came to your city and camped out permanently, would you say nothing had changed?
@@kenc2257 plus just think of how many square miles of area will be affected and then all the water runoff!! Plus, if there is no exposed earth to soak up the rain, everything is paved over, a small amount adds up!
Yeah it really does. Every time there’s a lot of rain the man hole covers in certain areas of Tijuana get blown off by the pressure. In addition, raw sewage/rainwater run free on many streets…and it smells really bad. Tijuana is a cool city, but their drainage infrastructure is not up to par:)
I’m in northwest AZ and my phone has given me several alerts in the past 5 hours. I’m hearing thunder way louder than I’ve ever heard in my 65 years of life. Lightning show like I’ve never seen either. Come Sunday and Monday IT’SGOING TO BE BIBLICAL! PREPARE YOUR HEARTS, AND MINDS!
Lmao, if you read the NOAA reports that come out every few hours, it literally says "NO STORM SURGE EXPECTED." Yes Imperial is low, but jeez people, calm down. It doesn't face the right way to get the swells (as opposed to North OC which does) and its impossible to get surge like Florida and the gulf here in SoCal, we live in a totally different place with totally different topography. I'd be more worried about the rain because we all know how well Gov Greaseball and CA takes care of infrastructure.
Hey man, you can’t trust officials. People are saying it isn’t worrisome, others are saying it is. Katrina is still a big example as to why you can’t always trust what the media says. So many mixed signals and that ended up being a downfall. If it stays at a Cat 4 it will definitely hurt California. Most, if not all, homes are not built for these kind of disasters.
It doesn't matter if the infrastructure is taken care of or not, it's not been built to deal with this kind of rainfall, just as Texas wasn't built to deal with ice storms. It also doesn't matter if no storm surge is expected, Hurricane Kathleen still flooded massive areas of LA, and wiped out towns at the base of the Laguna Mountains. Tide is high, runoff will flow into the sea, localized coastal flooding is expected, along with flooding of low-lying areas and the valleys from the mountains. The main issue is flooding from the runoff. If this storm drops what it's expected to drop on those higher peaks they're likely going to experience considerable flash floods and mudslides.
@@sobeliever1638 The infrastructure is built to deal with the necessities of the locale. Do you want to pay thousands more in taxes to build infrastructure to prepare for things that are unlikely to happen? That's the reality. Whether you're in Texas and never expect an ice storm or you're in California and never expect a hurricane like this, there has to be a balance when it comes to public spending, because you all would be screaming about the possibility of having to pay more in taxes for things that "aren't going to happen".
Water temperature in San Diego today is 65.8°F. Based on our historical data over a period of ten years, the warmest water in this day in San Diego was recorded in 2018 and was 74.3°F, and the coldest 66.7°F. Sea water temperature in San Diego is expected to rise to 69.6°F in the next 10 days. August average water temperature in San Diego is 70°F, the minimum temperature is 64°F, and the maximum is 76.6°F. The swimming season in San Diego lasts from July to October. During those months, San Diego water temperature does not drop below 68°F and therefore suitable for comfortable swimming. The average water temperature in San Diego in winter reaches 59.5°F, in spring 61°F, in summer the average temperature rises to 68°F, and in autumn it is 66.6°F.
That’s cold compared to Texas. It hasn’t really rained in central Tx areas since early May. Average temperature s have been 100-105 almost 3 months straight.
Nice to hear occasionally Mexico can crap on San Diego it's usually the other way around. Sounds like there in trouble with the amount of rainfall coming.
I have yet to find any forecasters say it’s gonna be less than an inch but since you’re the expert on the topic, do please go on. It’s still a category 2 and literally the size of Texas, and if you think it’s gonna dissipate and twinkle away into nothing, you guys are really oblivious. That rain is not gonna disappear when the storm is the size of three states on the West Coast. The water is going to go somewhere.
My friend from CA took me to Imperial in the 90s to teach me to surf. We did not read the signs, and just got in, we were the only ones on the beach and in the water. It was awesome, so we thought. After a half day in the water, we left and read the chalk board on the way out, "beach closed, fecal ct. extreme, do not swim/surf"......yuk!
People still living in the vehicles all over collier county and Lee county a year later after hurricane Ian. Fort Myers beach still has soup kitchens every mile. (Just to give you an idea how things can go sideways to upside down.)
The names are picked in order and well in advance. The next hurricane will start with the letter, i, and will be whatever name comes next on the list. Then the hurricane after that will start with the letter, j, and so on.
We usually get scattered storms but this thing coming looks like is gonna cover the whole valley being overcast/dark clouds for a day. Usually doesn’t happen like this in the summer.
A quater inch of rain and it floods where I live in Asia we have more rain in 1 month than in my home town of Australia has in a year and no floods happen.

@@jerryparisi2885 how long have you been alive? 100, 000 years….. ? Have you seen Putin’s tsunami bomb? Several ways it can happen and if I see it eventually it happens! Also it’s bigger than that.
Yesterday Brenden Minchef fromABC10 gave us an amazing report of the huracán using spaghetti threads graphics with the same colors explanation of the Denver weather depression that keeps the route of the huracán in the center between the west cost and the east, I’m looking for information like that I understood very well that explanation he gave was a class of the weather behavior between winds etc
We pray no damage is done because the Government we have now don’t care and they have shown it please God spare is this flood and ocean water rising In Jesus name Amen
If a person builds a home at the edge of an ocean, that house better be engineered to withstand a hurricane. This has nothing to do with "the government caring about you", though it's arguably about people building their house in the sand.
You think the government has anything to do with private insurance companies pulling out of places like Florida and California? Key word is "private" and no, the government has nothing to do with that decision. And if you believe in god, then you also believe god is the one who is constantly sending hurricanes to Florida, constantly starting wildfires on the west coast and Canada, and behind the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people per year due to climate disasters, right? Sounds like a great guy.
Seeing those homes close to the water brings memories of how Superstorm Sandy destroyed alot of them that were close to the water in 2012. Dont be a fool, or too proud to leave....alot of people can be claimed by this storm. Also....Sandy was no longer a hurricane when it hit the NYC area, so dont feel less threatened by it weakening to a tropical storm.
so true. and after the winds died down was when the real rainfall came. And if the storm stalls, the rain will just continue and continue and continue till what's left of the hurricane has moved on.
@@DannyEastVillage thats what happened with Sandy...3 very normal occurrences all at the same time....Full Moon, highest tide of the month, and that pressure system to the north which made Sandy stall for HOURS. That was the recipe which caused so much destruction with the storm....Im hoping there is nothing which made this system stall in place for those in Cali.
@@JTCT371 that’s right I forgot about the full moon.. Things like this have all kinds of consequences that you’ll never think of. I remember Con Ed turned off the electricity below 34th St because the subways were flooding. So we did not have cell phone service in downtown Manhattan. I slept on my office floor for almost a week. When I got back to my apartment, of course, everything in my refrigerator had to be thrown away.
@@DannyEastVillage Im over in Staten Island and I remember the wind, but the rain never really hit us that hard. I believe they were predicting 10 inches of rain, but we got a fraction of that. Things would have gotten to be so much worse if it had rained like that....Im sure it did in some places....it was like a tsunami around shore areas here, wiping out entire streets, and taking the lives of those who felt the warnings were overblown and remained. That had to be rough for you, to have to stay where you work for a week, not knowing what you'd come home to.....
Low lying areas get your documents, meds, pets and get out of there. That ocean will come right over the top of those barriers like they're not even there. Don't risk losing your life.
If a quarter inch of rain is able to cause serious problems for this area, what’s a major hurricane gonna do? It would probably wipe the entire area off the map. This is not safe for people to live in at all. I say that having gone through a few hurricanes in Houston.
Isn't the beach actually safer ? The flood and desert wind out east could be worse no? Coldest air will be on the beach I think. But idk I'm not a meteorologist or professional
Judging from that sandbag scene- I'd say Southern California is totally unprepared. Bet the insurance companies are sweating.... (does Southern California have flood insurance?).
The areas being featured in the news reports are highlighting areas which are prone to landslides whenever we see steady rain in CA. These are hilly areas where mudslides have been a common occurrence in recent years. They are also showcasing areas where the drainage systems are clearly not functional due to the mismanagement of all things Californian. For the rest of the state, this has been just a normal weekend with moderate rainfall at best. It hasn’t even been heavy rain. This is why nobody trusts the media. This so-called “hurricane” was overhyped like everything else. Selective reporting to the point where you can almost call it a lie.
I live on the Gulf Coast and have dealt with hurricanes -a lot. If you are in a low lying area, don't take the chance. Just evacuate before everyone else who decided too late also tries to leave.

Put in it, in smaller bags, your extra keys, insurance cards, extra Rx or supplements you need, small bills cash, first aid kit, change of clothes, sun hat, flash light…
No canned goods- too heavy. Protein bars.
Buy a gallon of distilled water and put a wide strap through the handle and to carry it sling over your shoulder.
Tell your family now, your planned evacuation route and your back up plan.
Great coverage!
IM SO SCARED ITS COMING TO LOS ANGELAS IM SO SCARED AND PRAYING PLZ SEND PRAYERS GUYS😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Leave and prayers for you
Praying for everyone in the path of the hurricaneI'm from Texas abd we have these all the time but California I never heard of having hurricanes nothing but earthquakes 🙏
Be prepared. God takes care of those who take care of themselves. Many Christians fall into the trap of inactivity. Many Christians ask God for help, but then expect God to do everything Himself. They excuse this by pointing to the fact that God will provide according to His will and in His timing. However, this is not a reason for inactivity. If you are in an area susceptible to flooding, find shelter somewhere else. All the prayers on the world will not stop the water from rising. The reality of physics has a way of getting in the way of the myth of mythology.
Sending Prayers cuz they don't work over here for non cult members
You’ll be fine, get your preps in order. Do not depend on the government for your well-being. Stay safe, prayers sent.
A perfect opportunity to watch those mysterious moving stones in Death Valley, you know, the ones that baffle all the “experts”.
Definitely praying for everyone
Especially the cartels 🙏
I’m certain that means something lol
@@LostSoul_1031 ?
I was just in imperial beach and it wasn’t that bad. Light rain.
Don't worry. Be happy! 😂 This storm sure took attention off Maui, Brandon, and the hunted....
The crap is coming for Tijuana
I don't mind thinking that way about it.
A good time to sneak into the border
You thought they had an excuse to sneak in here before
@@henry7765 yup thats what i was thinking.. i saw a small boat owned by a person in usa that has CF registration and saw 10 people come out of it and went on a waiting van ..south of san diego bay not too far from TJ... bet that guy got paid good lol... im sure they charge 3 to 5+K$ per person
Nothing changed in TJ the past hundred years.
yup same crap..im sure there will be some illegals crossing when this hurricane hits ... just saw a boat smuggling today south bay of san diego, was a usa person with a small fishing boat pretending to fish and then saw 10 people come out the boat and in a van waiting lol
Violence has increased.
The population has grown. During the 1920s, the border town’s population grew from 1028 to 8348 inhabitants. The current metro area population of Tijuana in 2023 is 2,260,000, a 1.76% increase from 2022. The metro area population of Tijuana in 2022 was 2,221,000, a 1.83% increase from 2021. The metro area population of Tijuana in 2021 was 2,181,000, a 1.92% increase from 2020. If 39,000 people came to your city and camped out permanently, would you say nothing had changed?
a quarter inch of rain causes their system to collapse? :o
The Mexican system (if you can call it that) is already non-functional.
@@kenc2257 plus just think of how many square miles of area will be affected and then all the water runoff!! Plus, if there is no exposed earth to soak up the rain, everything is paved over, a small amount adds up!
Yeah it really does.
Every time there’s a lot of rain the man hole covers in certain areas of Tijuana get blown off by the pressure.
In addition, raw sewage/rainwater run free on many streets…and it smells really bad.
Tijuana is a cool city, but their drainage infrastructure is not up to par:)
I have family down there, and they’re right in the middle of the path for hurricane Hilary. Hope they’ll be alright, called called about it.
I live in down California and my phone just gave me a alert
I'm in Santa Monica.
@@orchidorio oof
Same. Inland empire.
I’m in northwest AZ and my phone has given me several alerts in the past 5 hours. I’m hearing thunder way louder than I’ve ever heard in my 65 years of life. Lightning show like I’ve never seen either. Come Sunday and Monday IT’SGOING TO BE BIBLICAL! PREPARE YOUR HEARTS, AND MINDS!
Lmao, if you read the NOAA reports that come out every few hours, it literally says "NO STORM SURGE EXPECTED." Yes Imperial is low, but jeez people, calm down. It doesn't face the right way to get the swells (as opposed to North OC which does) and its impossible to get surge like Florida and the gulf here in SoCal, we live in a totally different place with totally different topography. I'd be more worried about the rain because we all know how well Gov Greaseball and CA takes care of infrastructure.
Hey man, you can’t trust officials. People are saying it isn’t worrisome, others are saying it is. Katrina is still a big example as to why you can’t always trust what the media says. So many mixed signals and that ended up being a downfall. If it stays at a Cat 4 it will definitely hurt California. Most, if not all, homes are not built for these kind of disasters.
The infrastructure has always been crap under different governors
It doesn't matter if the infrastructure is taken care of or not, it's not been built to deal with this kind of rainfall, just as Texas wasn't built to deal with ice storms.
It also doesn't matter if no storm surge is expected, Hurricane Kathleen still flooded massive areas of LA, and wiped out towns at the base of the Laguna Mountains. Tide is high, runoff will flow into the sea, localized coastal flooding is expected, along with flooding of low-lying areas and the valleys from the mountains.
The main issue is flooding from the runoff. If this storm drops what it's expected to drop on those higher peaks they're likely going to experience considerable flash floods and mudslides.
@@sobeliever1638 The infrastructure is built to deal with the necessities of the locale. Do you want to pay thousands more in taxes to build infrastructure to prepare for things that are unlikely to happen? That's the reality.
Whether you're in Texas and never expect an ice storm or you're in California and never expect a hurricane like this, there has to be a balance when it comes to public spending, because you all would be screaming about the possibility of having to pay more in taxes for things that "aren't going to happen".
And in the end, it was just another storm, and not even as bad as other storms earlier this year.
I live near the hurricanes path and I’m not worried as they only issue tropical storm warning for other city’s.
I hope they are ready I been dealing with this my whole life on the gulf coast
we are certainly not since we dont get hurricanes or tropical storms this bad.
It’s rained harder earlier this year. I just think media is trying to make it dramatic and then blame it on global warming.
@@bella4u08 prayers to y’all
Water temperature in San Diego today is 65.8°F. Based on our historical data over a period of ten years, the warmest water in this day in San Diego was recorded in 2018 and was 74.3°F, and the coldest 66.7°F. Sea water temperature in San Diego is expected to rise to 69.6°F in the next 10 days. August average water temperature in San Diego is 70°F, the minimum temperature is 64°F, and the maximum is 76.6°F.
The swimming season in San Diego lasts from July to October. During those months, San Diego water temperature does not drop below 68°F and therefore suitable for comfortable swimming. The average water temperature in San Diego in winter reaches 59.5°F, in spring 61°F, in summer the average temperature rises to 68°F, and in autumn it is 66.6°F.
Well researched thank you
That’s cold compared to Texas. It hasn’t really rained in central Tx areas since early May. Average temperature s have been 100-105 almost 3 months straight.
Nam myoho rengekyo 🙏 pray 🌍 peace be safe***
Nice to hear occasionally Mexico can crap on San Diego it's usually the other way around. Sounds like there in trouble with the amount of rainfall coming.
Can’t wait to get back to the beach!
Living in Dego and being from Florida I already knew this is going to be a serious situation.
I’m from diego moved to Fl but visiting Cali
Something about this storm that is not breaking down yet. I would think this one may take a bit to weaken as it moves quickly towards shore
I pray, pray, pray that all will be safe Dear Lord. This a scary thing.🙏
“diego” wtf is “Dego” missing letters😂
@@Bountyville424bro it’s just a typo calm down tf
I predict it won't be as bad as the media is saying....media gets a lot of attention and watchers when they pass alot of fear onto viewers
I have yet to find any forecasters say it’s gonna be less than an inch but since you’re the expert on the topic, do please go on. It’s still a category 2 and literally the size of Texas, and if you think it’s gonna dissipate and twinkle away into nothing, you guys are really oblivious. That rain is not gonna disappear when the storm is the size of three states on the West Coast. The water is going to go somewhere.
@@Anomize23 .... an INCH ??? HaHaHa

Nice ...looks like the beginning
At least there is the rain California needed.
My friend from CA took me to Imperial in the 90s to teach me to surf. We did not read the signs, and just got in, we were the only ones on the beach and in the water. It was awesome, so we thought. After a half day in the water, we left and read the chalk board on the way out, "beach closed, fecal ct. extreme, do not swim/surf"......yuk!
1/4 inch of rain and suage fails sounds like cali has some major infostructure failures! not surprising at all honestly
Prayers

If it is, it isn't from the effects of Hurricane Hilary...

I have heard there have been warnings already..
We are getting rain but nothing crazy and it's flooded here before it does happen here. Monsoon season
We usually get scattered storms but this thing coming looks like is gonna cover the whole valley being overcast/dark clouds for a day. Usually doesn’t happen like this in the summer.
Comment #600..8/21/2023 😁 I grew up in Imperial Beach! #IB❤️
A quater inch of rain and it floods where I live in Asia we have more rain in 1 month than in my home town of Australia has in a year and no floods happen.
I have an irrational fear of the ocean because I have a recurring nightmare of being swallowed by a giant wave. I wish I lived more than 5 miles away from Santa Monica
HA, RHATS A GOOD DREEM TO LIBE BY SANTA CLAUS BEECH BERY BEWTIFOL
In our day and age that isn't irrational. Crazy earthquakes, floods, wars, fires are making everyone nervous.
It’s called intuition because the wave that hits California is bigger than 1000ft. I moved already.
@@katherinemcclellan8825 1000'!!?? NEVER In History Has A 1000' Wave Hit Calif!! OR Anywhere Else!

Yesterday Brenden Minchef fromABC10 gave us an amazing report of the huracán using spaghetti threads graphics with the same colors explanation of the Denver weather depression that keeps the route of the huracán in the center between the west cost and the east, I’m looking for information like that I understood very well that explanation he gave was a class of the weather behavior between winds etc
Yep
We pray no damage is done because the Government we have now don’t care and they have shown it please God spare is this flood and ocean water rising In Jesus name Amen
If a person builds a home at the edge of an ocean, that house better be engineered to withstand a hurricane. This has nothing to do with "the government caring about you", though it's arguably about people building their house in the sand.
You think the government has anything to do with private insurance companies pulling out of places like Florida and California? Key word is "private" and no, the government has nothing to do with that decision. And if you believe in god, then you also believe god is the one who is constantly sending hurricanes to Florida, constantly starting wildfires on the west coast and Canada, and behind the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people per year due to climate disasters, right? Sounds like a great guy.
Maybe this will clean the streets. Nasty state
I hope it brings much needed water. The desert should flower.Lets hope theres no landslides.Will death valley get rain?
Yes DV gets HEAVY rain
So Hilary will possibly bring in a lot of crap, such a fitting name.
I live in imperial Beach.😢
CA has been complaining about drought for years, now they're complaining about the rain. You just can't please some people....
Seeing those homes close to the water brings memories of how Superstorm Sandy destroyed alot of them that were close to the water in 2012. Dont be a fool, or too proud to leave....alot of people can be claimed by this storm. Also....Sandy was no longer a hurricane when it hit the NYC area, so dont feel less threatened by it weakening to a tropical storm.
so true. and after the winds died down was when the real rainfall came. And if the storm stalls, the rain will just continue and continue and continue till what's left of the hurricane has moved on.
@@DannyEastVillage thats what happened with Sandy...3 very normal occurrences all at the same time....Full Moon, highest tide of the month, and that pressure system to the north which made Sandy stall for HOURS.
That was the recipe which caused so much destruction with the storm....Im hoping there is nothing which made this system stall in place for those in Cali.
@@JTCT371 that’s right I forgot about the full moon.. Things like this have all kinds of consequences that you’ll never think of. I remember Con Ed turned off the electricity below 34th St because the subways were flooding. So we did not have cell phone service in downtown Manhattan. I slept on my office floor for almost a week. When I got back to my apartment, of course, everything in my refrigerator had to be thrown away.
@@DannyEastVillage Im over in Staten Island and I remember the wind, but the rain never really hit us that hard. I believe they were predicting 10 inches of rain, but we got a fraction of that. Things would have gotten to be so much worse if it had rained like that....Im sure it did in some places....it was like a tsunami around shore areas here, wiping out entire streets, and taking the lives of those who felt the warnings were overblown and remained.
That had to be rough for you, to have to stay where you work for a week, not knowing what you'd come home to.....
@@JTCT371 lots of people in Broad channel totally lost their homes.
At the speed they filled those bags...i felt ashamed

And that estuary is going to be full of sewage. Me in the background on my balcony thinking ‘sh*t! I knew I overpaid for this condo!’
Nice knowing you Imperial Beach.
Low lying areas get your documents, meds, pets and get out of there. That ocean will come right over the top of those barriers like they're not even there. Don't risk losing your life.
It be fine
If you live by the ocean you take a risk,it’s always been like that. At least I’ll be able to fill up there water Reservoirs.
My Lord, I'm praying for those families 🙏😢
ITS GETTING CLOSER TO ME HELP GUYS
Right is cloudy warm
Liked the smile at the end
In California they won't even know of people are looting, it will just look like an average day
If a quarter inch of rain is able to cause serious problems for this area, what’s a major hurricane gonna do? It would probably wipe the entire area off the map. This is not safe for people to live in at all. I say that having gone through a few hurricanes in Houston.
how about board up your windows load up your family and pets and head inland ? just till its over
The flooding will be inland into Nevada and Arizona. Too much rain in a short period of time.
Yeah this ain’t a great time to be living by the beach
Isn't the beach actually safer ? The flood and desert wind out east could be worse no? Coldest air will be on the beach I think. But idk I'm not a meteorologist or professional

Judging from that sandbag scene- I'd say Southern California is totally unprepared. Bet the insurance companies are sweating.... (does Southern California have flood insurance?).

That means crap everywhere.
TJ sending CA some of their CACA.
Irá Lee, Hira Lee, Gira 500, Girale , HILL LARRY
The areas being featured in the news reports are highlighting areas which are prone to landslides whenever we see steady rain in CA. These are hilly areas where mudslides have been a common occurrence in recent years. They are also showcasing areas where the drainage systems are clearly not functional due to the mismanagement of all things Californian. For the rest of the state, this has been just a normal weekend with moderate rainfall at best. It hasn’t even been heavy rain. This is why nobody trusts the media. This so-called “hurricane” was overhyped like everything else. Selective reporting to the point where you can almost call it a lie.
He genuinely looked happy about it, or the look on his face was sarcasm
A quarter inch of rain???
Maybe a quarter foot of rain coming. Be prepared.
