While Kay is expected to continue weakening, it may still bring rain to southernmost California by the weekend.
MEXICO CITY — Tropical Storm Kay appeared headed out to sea just short of the U.S. border Friday, after dumping heavy rains on a sparsely populated area of Mexico’s Baja California peninsula. While Kay is expected to continue weakening, it brought some rain to southernmost California.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said there was a chance the outer bands of the big storm could bring heavy rain — and possibly flash floods — to parts of parched Southern California and southwestern Arizona on Saturday. There were some light rains in San Diego Friday. Around an inch of rain was forecast for the coast and upwards of four inches in the mountains, “which is a lot of rain for September,” he said. The storm could also begin lowering temperatures around San Diego, which has been under an excessive heat warning.
The mayor of the town of Mulege on the Gulf of California said Thursday morning that her town had been without water since Wednesday.
