As of Saturday morning, Hurricane Hilary was situated approximately 240 miles southwest of the southern tip of Baja California. The National Hurricane Center has categorized Hilary as a «large and powerful» storm, characterized by maximum sustained winds clocking in at 130 mph, as per a report in USA Today. Early on Saturday, the National Weather Service in San Diego noted that Hilary had accelerated and deviated slightly eastward in its trajectory. Consequently, the period with the most pronounced impacts from the hurricane is projected to span from Sunday morning until evening. In light of these conditions, the National Weather Service is advising residents to take precautions such as securing valuable items in and around their homes and refraining from driving on roads that are submerged due to flooding.

Hurricane Hilary is casting a shadow of concern across Southern California as the region prepares for significant heavy rainfall and the possibility of widespread flooding. The hurricane, which surged to category 4 status on Friday, is expected to maintain its hurricane status as it makes landfall on the West Coast of the Baja California peninsula on Saturday night. However, meteorologists predict its force will dwindle to that of a tropical storm as it advances toward Southern California on Sunday afternoon.
