Rare Hurricane To Tropical Storm Hilary Moves Into California After Initial Landfall Batters Mexico And Baja

As it battered Mexico and the Baja region it traveled Northeast into California and West Coast. Effects and damages are expected to reach inland States Arizona, Nevada including possible other Northern States above as high winds with extreme rain rates soak and flood.
