Southern California is bracing for Hurricane Hilary, which is forecast to dump heavy rain after hitting Mexico and could reach the U.S. border by the weekend. To stay safe, it is important to be prepared for a storm before it arrives, as different levels of preparedness are needed depending on your location. John Moore, a meteorologist and spokesperson for the National Weather Service, warns that it is important to know what to do well before the season starts.

Tropical Storm Hilary has been upgraded to a Category 3 hurricane with 120 mph winds, located 560 miles southwest of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. It is expected to bring intense rain and strong winds to parts of California, including the Los Angeles Basin, from Friday through early next week. If it makes landfall, it would become only the fourth storm of at least tropical storm strength to hit the area. Residents should be prepared for the potential impacts of Hurricane Hilary.
