LOS ANGELES: Storm Hilary flooded streets and downed power lines across Southern California and the US Southwest on Monday after unleashing record-breaking downpours overnight, but there were no deaths reported in the United States and fears of widespread damage were dissipating.
Forecasters issued a flash flood warning for an area just northwest of Las Vegas until Monday afternoon, saying there was potential for life-threatening runoff along rivers and streams. Before striking the United States, the storm passed through Mexico's Baja California peninsula. In Mexico, it killed at least one person, triggered flash flooding and swept away roads.
"Right now we have flooding on all of our roads. There's no way in or out of Palm Springs, and that's the case for the majority of the Coachella Valley. We're all stuck," Palm Springs Mayor Grace Garner said during an interview on CNN on Monday morning. Trees and power lines were downed and streets flooded in some neighbourhoods of Los Angeles, the second-most populous city in the United States, officials said on Monday.
