Californians are bracing for the potential impact of their first tropical cyclone in more than eight decades: Hurricane Hilary.

Hilary is expected to touch down in the Golden State this weekend with wind speeds reaching up to 230 kilometres per hour, and may even pass through western Mexico.

Though the storm is expected to slow down quickly, the World Meteorological Organization says the warming of the sea surface temperature is feeding its strength.

  1. We need to take action on the climate crisis if we want humanity to make it to the next century.

    If we do not take major action this will only escalate, with deadly and devastating results.

  2. What could be the first tropical storm in 80 years. What this means is that this has happened before. Not something new due to the undefined "climate change" of the left wing climate alarmists.

  3. Pay close attention to how Gavin Newsome mishandles hurricane hillary (clinton) and how Biden ignores it.
    Pay very close attention. This will either solidify Trump's win or put Cali underwater.

    Either way, it's a win.

  4. People one day will understand the Wrath Of God ? hopefully your home is built on solid ground. Everyone then, who hears these words of Mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. ~Jesus~
