(Worthy News) – Evacuation warnings have been issued in California ahead of its landfall this weekend as the National Hurricane Center predicts “catastrophic and life-threatening flooding” from a year’s worth a rain in the drought-prone region.
The Category 1 hurricane, which has weakened since Friday, is expected to make landfall either Saturday night or early Sunday morning in the Mexican state of Baja California, and Southern California should start seeing major rain overnight Saturday or Sunday morning.
By Saturday afternoon, the hurricane was moving north-northwest in the Pacific Ocean at 17 mph, with wind speeds of 110 mph, according to FOX Weather Center. [ Source: Fox News (Read More…) ]
