Part of the 2023 Pacific hurricane season

Hurricane Hilary was a large, potent Category 4 Pacific hurricane in August 2023 which brought torrential rainfall and gusty winds to the Pacific Coast of Mexico, the Baja California Peninsula and the Southwestern United States, resulting in widespread flooding and numerous mudslides. Hilary broke records in four U.S. states for wettest tropical cyclone or its remnants. The cyclone was the eighth named storm, sixth hurricane, and fourth major hurricane of the 2023 Pacific hurricane season.[nb 1]

Hilary originated from a disturbance south of Mexico associated with a tropical wave that entered the Pacific Ocean from Central America on August 12. The disturbance gradually grew more organized, and was named Tropical Storm Hilary while off the coast of Manzanillo, Colima, on August 16. Hilary quickly strengthened into a hurricane the next day. While tracking west-northwestward on August 17 and 18, it underwent rapid intensification, reaching its peak as a Category 4 hurricane with sustained winds of 145 mph (235 km/h) and a central pressure of 939 mbar (27.7 inHg). The cyclone then quickly weakened the following day due to the effects of cooler sea surface temperatures, drier air, and increasing wind shear. After weakening into a tropical storm, Hilary made landfall in San Quintín, Baja California, at 18:00 UTC on August 20, about 215 mi (345 km) south-southeast of San Diego, California. It then tracked northward into California, retaining its tropical characteristics through the morning of August 21. It then transitioned into a post-tropical cyclone while over the southern San Joaquin Valley. Hilary was the first tropical storm to enter California since Nora in 1997.[3]

In anticipation of "catastrophic and life-threatening flooding", the National Hurricane Center (NHC) issued its first-ever tropical storm warning for Southern California, extending from the Mexico–United States border to just north of Los Angeles.[4] Persistent heavy rainfall, potentially "more than a year’s worth of rain" in some areas, was forecasted. Due to this, flood watches were issued, affecting about 26 million people across four states (Arizona, California, Nevada, and Utah), and the entire region was placed under a high risk threat for flash flooding by the Weather Prediction Center (WPC).[5][6][7]

Two fatalities, both in Mexico, have been linked to Hilary.[8][9] Additionally, the storm left behind flooded roads, mudslides and downed trees in the Baja California peninsula and in Southern California. Some areas of the latter region received up to 600% of their annual rainfall averages for the month of August.[10] Even so, its overall impact on the region was less severe than initially feared.[11][12][13]

On August 12, a tropical wave traversing Central America producing widespread rain showers and thunderstorms entered the far eastern Pacific.[14] A broad area of low pressure developed within the wave on August 14, off the southern coasts of Mexico, Guatemala, and El Salvador.[15] The disturbance gradually became better organised during the following day, and a well-defined circulation along with developing convective banding features were observed on the morning of August 16, thus prompting the National Hurricane Center (NHC) to classify it as Tropical Storm Hilary.[16] Convection near the storm's center increased throughout the day, dense overcast started to develop over the growing storm as a result, and an eye began to form at its center.[17] Consequently, Hilary quickly strengthened into a Category 1 hurricane by 12:00 UTC on August 17, while located about 320 mi (515 km) southwest of Manzanillo, Colima.[18] Deep convection intensified beneath the system's cloud tops, which had cooled to below −112 °F (−80 °C), and its expanding upper-level outflow pattern became symmetric.[19] Hilary continued to rapidly intensify, reaching Category 4 strength at 06:00 UTC on August 18.[20]

By 15:00 UTC that day, Hilary's intensity leveled off with peak sustained winds at 145 mph (230 km/h), an increase of 80 mph (130 km/h) over a 24hour period.[21] Hilary benefited from exceptional conditions during its intensification phase, with sea-surface temperatures of near 86 °F (30 °C), low wind shear, and high relative humidity levels.[22] A hurricane hunter flight later that day confirmed that Hilary was a Category 4 hurricane, though not as strong as expected, with maximum sustained winds determined to be at 130 mph (215 km/h).[23] The hurricane initially tracked west-northwestward, then toward the northwest during this time, responding to the steering influences of a trough of low pressure to its north near the California coast and a ridge of high pressure over the central United States.[19][21][22] As those influences began drawing Hilary north-northwestward on the morning of August 19, asymmetrical convective patterns developed as the deep convection on the west side of the system was being eroded by an intrusion of dry and stable air. This caused the hurricane to weaken to Category 3 strength, with winds of 125 mph (205 km/h).[24] By the end of that day, the hurricane had dropped to Category 1 as a result of the adverse effects of cooler waters, drier air, and increasing shear.[25] At around 10:30 UTC the eye of the storm briefly touched the mainland at Punta Eugenia, Baja California Sur, before passing over the nearby inhabited islands of Natividad and Cedros.[26]

Hilary made landfall at around 18:00 UTC on August 20, with sustained winds of 65 mph (105 km/h) in San Quintín, Baja California, or about 215 mi (345 km) south-southeast of San Diego, California.[27][28] The storm continued to move north-northwestward after landfall, and crossed into California about six hours later, south-southwest of Palm Springs.[29] Late that day, the storm's low-level center became increasingly diffused and more difficult to track, eventually briefly reconsolidating along the coast of south-central Los Angeles. On the morning of August 21, while moving over the southern San Joaquin Valley, Hilary became a post-tropical cyclone.[30] Its upper level remnants then tracked north into the Rocky Mountains due to a jet stream.[31]

Preparations

The Weather Prediction Center's Excessive Rainfall Outlook for August 20

Mexico

The Mexican government issued watches for southern Baja California Sur on August 17.[32] They were upgraded to warnings later that day.[33] Hurricane watches were issued for western parts of the Baja California peninsula at 03:00 UTC on August 18, and by 15:00 UTC the same day, they were upgraded to hurricane warnings as hurricane watches were issued for the west coast of Baja California.[34]

Ports were closed to navigation along the Pacific coast from Oaxaca to Colima on August 17.[35][36] School classes and public activities were cancelled in Baja California, and in Baja California Sur, a baseball game was postponed and ports along the state's coast were closed.[37] Several schools in Cabo San Lucas were used as temporary shelters, and 18,000 soldiers were on alert.[38] In La Paz, law enforcement patrolled closed beaches, while schools in five municipalities were shut down.[38] Around 20 flights were cancelled at Los Cabos International Airport.[39] Tijuana and Ensenada closed their beaches August 19.[40][41] Across five islands in the hurricane's path, 850 people were evacuated.[42]

United States

On August 18, the NHC issued its first-ever tropical storm watch for Southern California, and a level 4/high risk for excessive rainfall was issued by the Weather Prediction Center (WPC).[43] This became the first ever high risk of flash flooding in the desert valleys of Southern California east of the Peninsular Ranges.[44] A flood watch was also issued for portions of California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona.[7] Twelve hours later, the NHC upgraded the tropical storm watch to a tropical storm warning for the region.[45] The WPC expanded the level 4/high risk, with forecaster David Roth describing the rainfall potential as "exceedingly rare, bordering on unique, for the region from a tropical cyclone and unique for Nevada, which had its first ever High Risk WPC Day issued for the state". Roth expected a broad area would experience 1-in-100 year rainfall totals.[46][47][48] On August 20, the Storm Prediction Center issued a level 2/slight risk in Southern California, which included 5% risk of tornadoes.[49] That night, a tornado warning was issued for Alpine and Descanso in San Diego County.[50] The WPC later forecas the chance for 5 inches (130 mm) of rainfall in the mountains of Idaho from the system.[51] Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) staff and personnel were ordered to be positioned in southern California by President Joe Biden, and Biden urged residents and people in the storm's path to take precautions.[52][53][54] California governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency for southern California.[55][56] Local states of emergency were declared in Los Angeles, Palm Springs, and in Indio.[57][58][59] An emergency operations center was opened in San Diego and Los Angeles.[60][61][62]

A mesoscale discussion from the Weather Prediction Center discussing flash flooding expected across most of Southern California as a result of Hurricane Hilary

The California National Guard preemptively deployed to multiple locations across southern California on August 19.[63] The American Red Cross opened shelters in Imperial, San Bernardino, and Riverside counties.[58] Emergency shelters were also opened by local governments in Yucca Valley and Twentynine Palms.[64] Nevada governor Joe Lombardo deployed 100 National Guard and Nevada National Guard troops to assist southern Nevada impacted by severe weather associated with Hilary.[65][66] Lombardo also declared a state of emergency, along with emergencies in Clark and Nye counties.[66][67] The United States Navy moved carriers and ships out to sea and out of Hilary's path, including the USS Theodore Roosevelt, and to park aircraft in hangars.[68] The Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation announced that all parks and facilities were closed on Sunday and Monday. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department advised all people to leave Catalina Island on August 19 and Avalon Bay was closed to boats and ships.[43][69] Additional resources were deployed to the island by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Los Angeles County Fire Department.[69] The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department issued evacuation warnings for Oak Glen, Forest Falls, Mountain Home Village, Angelus Oaks and northeast Yucaipa also on August 19.[43] Evacuation warnings were also issued for Orange County, including areas near the Bond Fire scar.[70] Parts of Joshua Tree National Park, Death Valley National Park, Mojave National Preserve, and Lake Mead were closed.[38][71][72][73]

Amtrak cancelled its August 19 run of the westbound Sunset Limited due to the storm;[74] the eastbound August 20 run was also cancelled with its Texas Eagle attachment originating in San Antonio.[75] They also truncated the August 19 runs of westbound Southwest Chief and the southbound Coast Starlight to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Emeryville, California, respectively.[76] The August 20 runs of these two trains going eastbound and westbound respectively would also originate from these locations.[77] Numerous Pacific Surfliner trains were also cancelled, forced to run on modified schedules, or delayed between August 19–21 as well.[78] The launch for Falcon 9 and Starlink satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base near Los Angeles was postponed by SpaceX.[79][80] Numerous airlines offered travel waivers to airports in southern California, after at least 1,000 flights were cancelled and 3,700 were delayed across the region.[81] Affected airports included Palm Springs, Los Angeles, Bakersfield, Burbank, Long Beach, Ontario, Orange County, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, and San Diego.[82][83]

Major League Baseball rescheduled three games in advance of Hilary: one each for the San Diego Padres, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Los Angeles Angels.[84] Major League Soccer home games for the LA Galaxy and Los Angeles FC were also rescheduled.[85] Del Mar Racetrack canceled the race meeting scheduled on August 20. This is only the second time in the 84-year track's history that such a cancellation occurred.[86] In addition, no live audience was permitted to attend the August 20 games for VALORANT Champions Los Angeles at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall.[87] Ongoing strikes by the Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA were cancelled for Monday in Los Angeles in preparation for Hilary.[88] A concert at the Hollywood Bowl was postponed, and all Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation areas were closed.[89] Disneyland and Disney California Adventure were closed early. Legoland California, SeaWorld San Diego and San Diego Zoo were closed on August 20.[90][91] The Los Angeles Zoo, Six Flags Magic Mountain, and Knott's Berry Farm were also closed.[59] California State University, Los Angeles and California State University, Fullerton canceled classes on August 21.[92][93] All campuses in the Bear Valley Unified School District were closed on August 21.[59] On August 20, the Los Angeles Unified School District announced that campuses would be closed the following day.[94][95] Several schools in Orange County were closed.[93] Fullerton College was closed as well, and schools across the Anaheim Union High School District, Anaheim Elementary School District, and the South Orange County Community College District were also closed.[93] DoorDash temporarily suspended operations in numerous areas across southern California.[83]

Impact

Mexico

Heavy rains from the developing storm affected portions of southern and western Mexico.[22] Coastal areas of Sinaloa recorded torrential rains from the hurricane's passage, with its first fatality reported on August 18 in Navolato when an SUV and its driver were washed away.[8] On August 28, the government of Baja California Sur calculated the damage statewide to be 250 million pesos (US$14.7 million).[96]

On the Baja California peninsula, nearly 1,900 people were evacuated to shelters.[42] Torrential rainfall caused widespread flooding and landslides in Baja California Sur. One man died in Santa Rosalía, when his vehicle was washed away by floodwaters.[39] Officials in Baja California reported numerous mud and rock slides across the state along with several power outages.[11]

United States

Tropical Storm Hilary moved through the western United States, producing rainfall from California as far north as Montana. The maximum recorded precipitation of 13.07 in (332 mm) at Upper Mission Creek in southeastern California.[97] According to catastrophe modeler Karen Clark & Company, insurance losses reached US$600 million across the Western United States.[98] Damages in the US alone were estimated at US$675 million by professional services company Aon in October 2023.[99]

California

While Hilary moved through Southern California, the storm produced locally high winds along with heavy rainfall. The strongest gusts were recorded in Los Angeles County  87 mph (140 km/h) at Magic Mountain, and San Diego County  84 mph (135 km/h) at Big Black Mountain.[100] High winds knocked down at least 50 power poles in the town of Thermal.[101] The highest rain totals were recorded in the San Bernardino Mountains  11.73 in (298 mm) at Raywood Flats, and the San Jacinto Mountains  11.74 in (298 mm) at Mount San Jacinto.[100] Rainfall at Furnace Creek in Death Valley totaled 2.20 in (56 mm), setting a new single-day rainfall record; the amount was more than the annual average rainfall of 2.15 in (55 mm).[102] On August 20, downtown Los Angeles and San Diego each recorded its wettest single summer day on record (June through August) with 2.48 in (63 mm) and 1.82 in (46 mm) of precipitation, respectively. Palm Springs recorded 3.18 in (81 mm), also a single summer day record amount.[30]

All roads in Death Valley National Park were severely damaged by flash flooding, with damage estimated at $500 million in Inyo County alone, forcing the park to close for two months.[103][104][105] Damage in Riverside County totaled $126 million, including about $83 million in damaged roads and bridges, and about $26 million affecting water systems.[106] That made it the costliest natural disaster in the history of the county, with much of it occurring in the Coachella Valley.[107] Across the valley, 9-1-1 phone service was down for a few days, which required residents to either text or call alternate numbers for emergencies.[101][108] At least 10 people in Thermal evacuated to shelters.[109] A nearly 30 mi (48 km) stretch of Interstate 10 (I-10) closed for two days from the floods, mud, and debris, making it difficult to access Palm Springs.[108] At least six state highways in the county were closed due to floods, debris flow, or rockslides.[101] Floods washed out a bridge over the Mias Canyon, isolating residents in Oak Glen.[110] Along the Whitewater River, floodwaters 15 ft (4.6 m) deep damaged a bridge, derailed eight train cars, and buried another train in mud.[111][112] In Cathedral City, floodwaters entered a nursing home, requiring 14 people to be rescued by loaders.[113] Floodwaters entered Eisenhower Medical Center in Rancho Mirage, but this did not impact operations there.[57] In Palm Springs, the floods inundated vehicles,[57] while downed power lines sparked a few small fires.[108]

Across California, portions of I-8, I-10, I-15, SR 14, and the Pacific Coast Highway closed due to flooding and rockslides.[58][59][114][115] In San Diego, firefighters rescued a group of 13 people from a flooded homeless camp along the San Diego River, while the Harbor Police rescued two people from a boat washed against Harbor Island.[116] More than 5,000 customers were left without electricity according to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.[117] The storm spawned a microburst in Fresno, producing winds of 55 mph (89 km/h), which knocked down 50 trees at the Belmont Country Club. Winds also knocked down a power pole and electric lines in the city.[118][119][120] Farther north, heavy rain produced mudslides and flash flooding in Siskiyou County near Mount Shasta, damaging roads and rains.[121]

The strongest winds beyond California primarily occurred in Nevada and Utah at high-elevation locations above 9,000 ft (2,700 m). In a mountainous area near Mount Charleston, in Clark County, Nevada, wind gusts reached 82 mph (132 km/h), strong enough to knock down a few trees.[122] The weather station at Cardiff Pass in Utah recorded a gust of 75 mph (121 km/h).[100] Thunderstorms produced high winds near Weiser, Idaho, reaching 69 mph (111 km/h), strong enough to knock down a few trees.[123][124]

Locally heavy rainfall spread across much of the western United States.[97] Arizona received much less precipitation from Hilary than forecasted, just (2.10 in (53 mm) at Hilltop.[125][100] Records for wettest (total rainfall) tropical cyclones and their remnants were broken in four states: Idaho, Montana, Nevada, and Oregon.[31]

The new mark in Nevada was more than double the previous record, with 9.20 in (234 mm) recorded in Lee Canyon.[31][100] The heavy rainfall produced flash flooding, which washed away roads, underground pipes, a fire station, and trails across Spring Mountains National Recreation Area. The damage, estimated at $25 million, closed the recreation area until October 26, when Nevada State Route 156 (Lee Canyon Road) was reopened.[126][127][128] Floods closed a portion of U.S. Route 95 in Nevada in Nye County.[129] The rains rose the water levels in Lake Mead by 0.16 in (4.1 mm).[110]

Hilary's push toward Southern California coincided with a 5.1 magnitude earthquake that struck north of Los Angeles near Ojai, California, along with numerous aftershocks. Only minor damage and no injuries were reported from the quakes.[130][131] As a result, the term "hurriquake" trended on social media.[12][132]

Aftermath

Due to storm damage, Riverside County announced in September 2023 the availability of tax relief for property owners incurring more than $10,000 in damage.[107] On October 5, the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration announced the release of $15.3 million in emergency funds to help rebuild roads and bridges in 12 California counties.[133] On November 22, U.S. President Joe Biden announced a major disaster declaration for five California counties affected by the storm: Imperial, Inyo, Kern, Riverside and Siskiyou. The announcement provided federal funding for emergency work toward repairing or replacing damaged public facilities.[134]
