One person in Mexico drowned as Tropical Storm Hilary barreled toward the Baja California peninsula Sunday amid warnings of “life-threatening” floods — prompting Californians to pack up batteries, water bottles and other essentials that left stores barren.
Hilary, the first tropical storm to hit Southern California in 84 years, was expected to cause dangerous flooding, mudslides, isolated tornadoes, powerful winds and power outages when it hits California Sunday afternoon. “Three inches in one day is a lot,” said Emma Rodriguez, 26, as she filled her tank and stocked up on snacks at the gas station.
Forecasters have warned that Hilary could bring up to 10 inches — or a year’s worth of rain for some areas — in southern California and southern Nevada.
