Forecasters expect rainfall of up to 10 inches across Nevada through Monday morning before the storm dissipates.
Rare tropical storm Hilary remains a significant threat as it proceeds northward and is expected to cross into southern Nevada, Oregon, and Idaho before weakening, according to forecasters.
Hilary was the first tropical storm to hit Southern California in 84 years, according to forecasters. It made landfall around midday on Sunday on Mexico's Baja California coast, flooding the arid peninsula with much more rainfall than the area is used to at this time of year. The floodwaters later moved over Southern California, inundating roadways and highways.
According to forecasters at the National Weather Service , the storm will move over northern California overnight and will dissipate over central Nevada on Monday.
