The National Weather Service in Los Angeles has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/report-coronavirus-rules-are-stifling-free-speech-on-campus\/\" title=\"Report: Coronavirus Rules Are Stifling Free Speech On Campus\">issued warnings<\/a> about &#8220;dangerous rip currents&#8221; \u200band \u200csouth swells ranging from four\u200c to 10\u200b feet. The storm is expected to impact various areas, including San Diego, Los Angeles, Lake\u2063 Havasu, Death Valley, \u200dArizona, and Nevada. In fact, \u2062Death Valley could experience more than double its annual rainfall in\u200b just three days.\u2064 Some parts \u200bof Southern California may see\u200c over 10 inches of\u200d rain, according to the Washington Post.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cPreparations for the impacts of flooding from rainfall \u200cshould be completed as soon as possible,\u2063 as heavy rain will increase beginning\u200b Saturday,\u201d advised the National Weather Service\u2019s Weather Prediction Center.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Although Hilary is expected to weaken to a tropical storm by the time\u2062 it reaches us, \u200bit is still anticipated to cause significant damage. As of Saturday morning, the hurricane has\u2064 already weakened to a Category\u2064 3, \u2064with sustained winds of 125\u200b miles per hour. It was previously a Category 4\u200b on Friday.<\/p>\n<h3>Threat of Damaging Winds<\/h3>\n<p>While the rain is the primary\u2064 concern for the Southwest, \u200dhigh winds also pose a significant threat. \u2063These strong winds \u2064have the potential to bring down powerlines and topple \u200ctrees. Coastal areas and\u2063 high elevations will likely be \u200dthe most affected, with deserts and\u2062 mountains\u200c experiencing possible wind gusts of over 70 miles per hour. Even metropolitan areas closer to the \u200dcoast could see gusts reaching 40 to 50 mph.<\/p>\n<p>Officials are urging \u200bresidents to\u2063 take precautions\u200b and prepare for possible power outages. \u200dMake \u200dsure to charge your\u200d devices and have multiple ways to receive\u200d emergency information.<\/p>\n<p>If Hilary does \u2063make landfall as a\u200c tropical storm, it will\u200b be the first tropical storm \u200cto hit California in 84 years.\u200c The \u2062last \u2062tropical cyclone hit the West Coast in 1939, causing 93 deaths and millions of dollars in damages.<\/p>\n<p>Stay safe and stay informed!<\/p>\n<p><em>Click here\u200d to read more from\u200c the \u2063Washington \u200dExaminer.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Severe weather alerts issued for Southern California, including San Diego and Los Angeles, as Hurricane Hilary approaches.
