Hurricane Hilary headed for Mexico’s Baja California Saturday as the U.S, National Hurricane Center predicted “catastrophic and life-threatening flooding” for the peninsula and for the southwestern United States, where it is forecast to make land as a tropical storm on Sunday.

    I grew up in CA, but moved to the Southeast after college. I’ve gotten used to hurricane season here, but it’s wild to see a hurricane/tropical storm hitting the west coast while the east has been unbothered so far this season.

    I wonder if it’s the combination of climate change & El Niño making things so weird?
