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

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.

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

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

Flash flood video shows why they're called that. This is in Wrightwood in mountains NE of LA, SE of Palmdale, SW of Victorville. https://twitter.com/TransverseDream/status/1693286782555820217/video/4 (Another birb link...🤷 I looked for it on Mastodon first.) #TropicalStormHilary #weather #CAwx

Holy smokes.
I don't think I've ever seen this much rain fall in such a short time ever.

M 5.1 #earthquake in Southern California, 7 km SE of Ojai, coincidentally during #TropicalStormHilary landfall. M5 quake is relatively common in California, on the order of months between them. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/ci39645386/executive #geology

The rain certainly makes the flowers pop

Caltrans pics of #TropicalStormHilary damage+repair on the 14 in Palmdale, northern LA County. This is near #KPMD Airport known for Lockheed Skunk Works, former home of #NASA747 SOFIA & where NASA space shuttles were built. https://twitter.com/CaltransDist7/status/1693344193882828913 (Please excuse the birb link. Caltrans doesn't post on Mastodon and there's no working mirror bot.) #weather #CAwx #aviation #avgeek

Another perspective of the Santa Clara River, this time showing the northern bank near the river’s confluence with Arroyo San Francisquito. Note the fact all the trees in the river have been completely undercut by the rapids.

It’s really coming down now ⛈️
The Santa Clara River, which runs dry most of the year, is churning out an unimaginable amount of silt-laden water right now. Just look at those rapids.
Taken from the McBean Parkway bridge, looking downstream.

Looks like flooding instead of wind is gonna be the danger for #hurricanehilary #tropicalstormhilary so I leave you with this, which will definitely not make you want to stab your ear holes. https://youtu.be/5JUsYrjg6xU

If you are tracking #flooding due to #Hilary (now #TropicalStormHilary, but was #HurricaneHilary) you can see all the real time National Weather Service flash floods at @flashflood_bot (this is direct from the #NWS via my bot -- the Fediverse-interpretation of #NWSFlashFlood bot over there on the site-formerly-known-as-Twitter) https://m.ai6yr.org/@flashflood_bot
