he was in san diego. he has at least 7500 emergency responders already on the ground, and we are told more resources are being coordinated to battle the storm. the emergency declaration covered 11 counties you see on the screen, from san diego to l.a., up to fresno and other counties in the central valley. evacuations have been ordered in parts of san bernardino county, and evacuations are being urged for people out on catalina island. people in southern california are bracing for this rare and dangerous storm heading their way. our sister station is in san diego with the latest. >> reporter: good morning, kira. let me just show you off the bat what we are seeing right now. because of the potential for flash flooding, the city of san diego has closed this intersection as you turn into fashion valley mall. we are near the san diego river, in the mission valley neighborhood. when we get intense rain like this, the city of san diego always closes this area because of the potential of flash flooding. >> we ar

joe little from san jose joining us from san diego. what is the situation where you are? >> well, it's been pretty miserable off and on in san isabel. for those familiar with the san diego area, we're an hour inland away from the coast. it is -- this is the calm we've been experiencing throughout the day, but just 20 minutes ago we were just pummeled with rain. you can see the trees behind me. these are huge, old trees. they are not moving right now. we are getting gusts between 60 and 70 miles an hour and they start bending all over the place. earlier today we were here about 11:00 a.m. this morning when one of those trees gave way. we have video we're showing you. one of the trees fell, took down some power, utility lines. they cut off the power to thi one small building. guys showed up real quick, our utility company down here. they took care of the power. they replugged the building back into the system and whatnot. surprisingly, really surprisingly throughout this mountain area, we haven't seen a whole lot of trees falling down. and that wasur biggest fear heading up

we're live in san diego county for the very latest on conditions there. we do want to get your check of your 4 zone forecast. taking a live look at downtown san francisco this evening where we've had some word on nice weather. yeah, it's kind guy and humid and >> much warmer here in san francisco, of course inland. typically it's it's hot this time of year. but says tracking the big weather story today and tropical storm. >> hillary and greets. yeah. and it's because of tropical storm hilary that downtown san francisco warmed up to 81 degrees today. nearly 15 degrees above average. remember, we should be averaging 67 degrees and this is why we're tracking this plume of subtropical moisture because of what is now tropical storm hilary currently over southern california. they could easily see 10 inches of rain. that's about a year's worth of rain today through tomorrow. so dangerous flooding, mudslides certainly going to be an issue out there for los angeles, even for bakersfield and barstow as well. tracking some pockets of moderate to heavy downpours there

joe little in san diego joins us now live from santa isabelle in the mountains of san diego county. and, joe, things were not that bad last time we checked with you an hour ago. how is it now? >> reporter: it's still not that bad. there is no wind. there is no rain. it is still cold. we've actually moved 15 minutes up the mountain farther into inland in san diego to an old gold mining town named julian. take a look at this. this is a gigantic part of this tree right here that has fallen on top of a restaurant. god bless these folks inside. they are still open. that's the only place open for food right now in julian. other branches fell off here. but this house right here, they got -- they got worked over a little bit. there is a tree on the left side that knocked off one of their vents off the roof. my buddy behind the camera can take a step to the left, you can see another tree leaning on the porch on this house right here. knocked on the door. no one is home inside. but there is a bunch of debris, branches all over their front yard. you can see over here on the left side, jeff, so

but the flight back to san diego for the night.e kevin for a historic event. >> we need to get a bunch of rub so the trees do not crash over to our neighbors. but since my friends live on the beach are getting sandbags and, prepare for flooding. we met despite the storm come the south a couple says they decided less than to move forward with their anniversary trip to san diego. >> let's go. who cares. get a chance to see it. and that tickets back to sandy go for sunday or monday, their flights are already being impacted. they're getting warnings of possible delays and cancellations. >> we got this text at 2:49, about 40 minutes before i boarded my flight. >> >> reporter: a teacher in san diego where they say districts are talking about canceling school monday. both san diego and los angeles are preparing for the worst. >> this is a regional event. not just l.a. county, but all of southwestern california, potentially arizona and nevada also. so, our responsibility right now is heavily leaning into coordination, support. >> reporter:

san diego is a city with a lot of hills.n those low areas know what they can expect with a lot of rain. of course, we have been talking about the fact that no one here who is from san diego and and has always lived in san diego, no one practically lived through a tropical storm. they don't know what to expect. authorities want people to protect their homes as best as they can. they have different locations where they gave away sand and sandbags for people to bring some of those home. they ask residents also to have food and water. and the power company, as you mentioned earlier, has communicated to customers about the possibility of outages. i spoke with a resident here yesterday who showed me a text message that informed him that those power outages could be extended once the storm arrives. for now, it is a lot of waiting here in san diego. and i will say that the east part of the county here, as well as the counties going into the northern part of southern california, which is where palm springs is, san bernardino area, th

but we are really going to be quiet compared to the major impact which will happen across san diego and the los angeles basin. all the surrounding communities, anywhere from about orange county all the way into redondo beach, huntington beach, long beach, san pedro as well. we do have that 10 to 15% chance of a thunderstorm on monday. also chance on tuesday. let's just call it unsettled. and we'll keep you on top of the weather for the risk of precipitation and the risk of dry lightning here in the bay area. christina berta, thank you. the scuffling giants trying to get back on track against a team with the best record in baseball. joe fonzi has an update n e every business deserves a great deal. that's why comcast business is launching the mobile made free event. with our business internet, new and existing customers can get one year of unlimited mobile for free. it's our best internet. powered by the next generation 10g network and with 99.9% reliability. plus one line of free mobile for an entire year. it's the mobile made free event-happening now. get started for just $49.99 a month

nbc -- 's is on the ground for us in san diego. we first want to go to the deputy director of the national hurricane center who's been tracking this thing for the last few days or so. jamie, good to talk to you. talk to us first about the path of hilary, if in fact it has wobbled east or west at all. and even though this is now downgraded to a tropical storm, how seriously should it be taken? >> yeah, the track of hilary has been remarkably consistent for the last few days, which has really helped us to hone in on the messaging in the primary impact area, the areas. it will be, as you noted, in the opening segment, much of the southwest and spreading that moisture and flood potential throughout a good chunk of the intermountain west. i, mean look at this enhanced flood threat extending all the way into idaho and montana. >> why are -- if we are expecting kind of smaller amounts of rain here, jamie, why are these areas so prone to devastation like mudslides, for instance, as we are expecting to have over the next 24 to 48? >> this i

and san diego as well.ng about hilary coming to the area and it looks like as were doing it you can see the rain coming down as is our, hunker down, stay in, a lot of supermarkets were busy as people were getting groceries and preparing for the rain what a way to in the summer for so many kids wanting to get back to school to have to take it back inside. mike: craig herrera, thank you very much. more on what preparations look on the ground in las vegas, rachel flanagan joins me now, the executive director for the southern nevada chapter of the red cross, welcome. mike: what can you tell me about your organization, preparation in advance of the storm? >> absolutely, the american red cross spends her entire year preparing for events like this, this is what we do, the team in southern nevada has boots on the ground and we are prepared to open three shelters should we get the call from her local and county state officials and we will make sure that those things happen in were gearing up ahead of the storm and m

covering 11 counties from southern california to the central valley including los angeles, riverside, san diego, san bernardino and fresno and they are doing what they can to prepare. they say 7500 emergency responders are on the ground ready to help as they coordinate resources ahead of landfall. >> the team is tracking hilary and we have the latest information . a team in the east bay will be deployed to southern california. what is the latest? >>> we are still looking at a category two coast strength moving at 100 miles per hour and we think it will lose the hurricane status over the next 24 hours but still come ashore east of san diego by sunday around two or three in the afternoon and crossing east of san diego and then by sunday afternoon and evening headed up toward the southern sierra but the rain potential here is tremendous with increasing through southern california and some locations as we head through the bay tomorrow and we will pick up more rain in a few hours time and these are areas in the high deserts of southern california where we could see for coda 7 inches of rain and this

he tweeted this photo today of his talks with san diego mayor and san diego mayor todd gloria, earlieray, caltrans spoke about coordinating efforts across the state. caltrans has been proactively pre-positioning resources since friday morning, including employees and equipment, staging them so that we can respond very quickly to the storm event. we have almost 2000 employees working, 12 hour shifts around the clock, and we have activated our department operations center here in sacramento, as well as our emergency operations centers in our districts between sacramento and san diego. and in between. all right. we want to get right to the very latest on hillary's path. we're bringing in ktvu meteorologist roberto gonzalez. roberto, you've been tracking this storm and you say that this downgrade is to be expected. absolutely you just nailed it there, christina. you've got to keep in mind, this time yesterday, 24 hours ago, this was a cat four hurricane. on a scale of 1 to 5, it's now a category one. don't get us wrong. that doesn't mean that it doesn't have power and intensity. it certain

producer as it makes landfall tomorrow morning near san diego. and it's just going to plow through the southern half of the state going up toward the western portion of nevada as a tremendous, tremendously powerful storm that will dump 5 to 7in of rain in the areas that are hardest hit. those areas here in the purple, the darker colors, up to seven inches or more. the red areas will have about five inches of rain. so you can see the potential for that much rain falling in such a short period of time means that flooding widespread and severe flooding is quite likely. and looking at the reach of the successive rainfall, not just through the central or in the southern half of california, but all the way over into most of the state of nevada, most of the state of arizona northward into utah and all the way up into idaho. this storm will be a tremendous rain producer. but of course, our focus right now is on southern california, where it's expected to make landfall tomorrow morning. i'll have more details on this a little bit later. karina. all right,

one of those, let's speak to laura kane jen list and radio host in san diego. thanks for joining us, laura. and what's the storm like where you are at the moment. right now is steadily raining, is started reading, it's $230.00 our time. so about at 2 hours ago, it's been reading steadily. sometimes the hard. i went outside, as you can tell, i was reading, the gutters are all filled with water. it's flooding down the streets. there's leads everywhere. there's a tornado warning, just a little bit east to san diego county and the area called alpine. the desert areas of san diego county are really getting hit by a very hard amount of rain in a very short amount of time. so that's just the flash flooding is so worrisome because it's going to be happening so fast. even a photo of water can sweep away a smaller car, so we're being told not to drive through any kind of water at all. and we're actually being told to stay in place in san diego, and to pretty much been from here. a lot of the stores are out of water. a lot of the stores are out of ice cream for whatever r

we can see what's going on in san diego. know the very winds and flooding that's taking place in other counties so i think maybe that will make it more real for people here in los angeles. and i know my former colleague and congress who is now mayor of los angeles karen bass has been reached out to by president biden who is assured us that the federal government will be there to help us as we go through this first ever once in a lifetime event for l.a. county. >> we just got word that the health department there has issued an ocean water quality rain advisory which tells people they need to stay out of the ocean for the next three days because so much water washes off the land and carries a lot of bacteria with it. it potentially could make people sick speacialg the elderly or people with compromised immune systems. that's not fun when you live next to the ocean. >> no. i think that was really important that public health issued that. so we want everybody to stay out of the water for the next 72 hours. we've actually had our

nbc's guad venegas, is live in san diego. what are you seeing in san diego and what's the latest guidance from officials in the area? >> unless, our under a flash flood warning here in san diego. you can see behind me downtown. we've had light rain here all day on and off. it's continued, we still don't have the main part of the storm here. in southern california, the last report indicates that the storm is now arriving at ensenada. it's a large city in mexico. about 300,000 residents, south of talana. after that area the storm will make its way into tawanta, and cross into the united states, authorities wanted people to keep in mind that there was this morning for flash floods. for people in san diego that live in vulnerable areas knew they had to prove it -- hills, people live on top of hills, other people live in the areas. they knew that their houses were much more vulnerable. authorities had areas where they could pick up sandbanks to protect their property. they wanted people to keep in mind as well that there could be

and it's currently 640 miles southeast of san diego. significant rain from the storm will arrive in california tomorrow. california has resources on the ready, including two crew members from the alameda county fire department deploying to riverside county will join a swift water rescue team. abc7 news reporter cornell barnard is here with a look at how much the golden state is getting ready. cornell yeah, karina, as spencer just mentioned, no tropical storm has made landfall in southern california since 1939. and because of that, officials urging residents to prepare and stay safe. hillary nearing landfall on mexico's baja peninsula, bringing heavy rain, wind and rough seas, while hundreds of miles north batten down the hatches. communities near la are filling sandbags, preparing for hillary, which could bring epic rainfall rarely seen in southern california. i mean, it's going to be some rain. so, you know, usually there's some flooding and the landslides and things like that. evacuation warnings have been issued for mountain communit

and for lauren, this i'm joined by laura cain june list and radio host in san diego does have you on the program? laura, how serious is the situation in california right now a hi, christina. well, it has been quite the weather events. we've had washed away roads, there's debris everywhere, there's lots of flooding. there's been slash flooding, especially in our desert areas. the storm just passed overcharges stadium in los angeles, and now it's heading toward northern california. schools are close tomorrow, a lot of schools were going to start tomorrow, which is monday. and now they're not in southern california. they've been floated off a day. at least we have evacuated orders in effect for san bernadino county, which is in southern california. and to add to all of that, there was a 5 point one, magnitude, earthquake, just north of san diego, in the midst of all of this. and people have been taking this seriously, but it's not as serious as we thought it was going to be. as a matter of fact, i myself went out in the rain in the wind to go shopping just to see what it was like. and i

so san diego as well getting some very heavy rain right now and points to the east of san diego. and so that's why those flash flood warnings are in effect. people need to seek higher ground. definitely stay indoors and get away from the rising water. but this is going to be a problem -- >> jennifer, i have to stop you there. we're going to go straight to san diego county where officials are updating folks. >> are going to be needed due to the storm. and thank governor newsom for creating the state of emergency to support recovery and response efforts in the region. our emergency operation center was fully staffed and will continue to be fully staffed since yesterday and we will continue to do that. we've also increased our inclement weather programming capacity to shelter those in the county's unincorporated areas and those experiencing homelessness. it's important to emphasize that if you know of someone who is experiencing homelessness or is in need of a bed to please contact 211. it will be available 24 hours to be sure everyone stays dry and safe. our county outreach teams l

we go to san diego. you're in a location where the barricades are up. is anyone bold enough or crazy enough to be driving around them there? >> reporter: yeah, i saw six or seven cars driving around these signs, even though the signs say this is a flood zone and the roads are closed. it is significant rain. this is spre surprising for august, but it still feels a little light. and this area as you look further down that way, you see that car driving right through? this is an area known for flooding. this is where cars get stuck all the time in san diego because people drive through these barricades. and the concern here in southern california is that with people so unused to this type of weather, especially in the summertime, that they're going to ignore these warnings. that's why you're hearing the mayor of san diego saying, look, city parks are closed, beaches are closed, the navy has already moved ten ships out further to sea, concerned about what is happening as this tropical storm approaches, worried about any impact on the u.s. navy. so that is th

coronado, miramar and naval base san diego. and portions track over san diego.ier rain will impact san diego county, imperial county. and coachella through palm springs and the other side of the san jacinto mountain range and it will play a huge role what's coming out of the storm. and they're rescheduling padres games, playing two today. and students who hope to begin class on monday, we'll see if it's a go. the second largest school district in the state of california, 120,000 students. same for san diego state. we'll see. mike: craig to your team, be safe out there and thanks for your coverage. >> thank you. mike: you can find comprehensive coverage on the fox weather app. be sure to scattered the code on your screen and download it to your phone to receive the news and weather that you need. fox weather tracking hillary all this weekend, please be sure to check it out. >> well, president biden is taking fire this week for reportedly using aliases and secret e-mail addresses as vice-president in messages to his son hunter biden who had business in ukraine at

matt rivers is in san diego with more on hilary. >> as down, millions of people in the path are for jim -- facing potentially catastrophic in life and conditions. >> this is expected to have significant impacts within the area. which will include flash flooding, coastal flooding, and erosion. dangerous rip currents and high seas. >> california under a state of emergency, hillary is the first tropical storm to hit the state since 1997. -- 1907. >> stay safe, stay home and stay informed. this is an unprecedented weather event. >> residents have been preparing for the storm. >> it's crazy, you just have to plan ahead. >> gathering sandbags and stocking up. >> i want to make sure that we are prepared for prolonged outages. we hope that we get to everything and get all customers back on very quickly. but i want to make sure that customers are prepared. >> evacuation orders issued first -- part of san bernardino, telling residents across the entire region to be prepared for more evacuations. >> an officer is knocking on your door, answer and follow those instructions they give you. they are t

>> reporter: the weather has cleared up in san diego. just minutes ago, as you started the show, we saw the first ray of sunlight since probably two or three days ago. the sun has come out in san diego. we had light rain this morning. as of now we still have some flooding in the low areas. of course, this tropical storm hit yesterday with rain all through out the day. you've been showing a lot of these videos that show the massive floods that took place. you've got to think of california understanding the geography. this storm came across northern mexico and into southern california through the mountains east of san diego. that area was preparing as best as possible for that wind and that heavy rain. as it moved north from san diego county, that rain dropped a lot of water down the mountains into the deserts going east and also into the rivers moving west. we have had some floods. we knew from the beginning there was a danger of floods. county officials, local officials and state officials prepared for this. in fact, one of those videos

this is a freeway that connects san diego to the deserts east of san diego.ortunately authorities were prepared and they had first responders standing by. they asked people to stay off the roads, to stay in their homes during the storms and as of now, there have not been any reports of any serious injuries or damage other than trees falling on some structures here in san diego. in los angeles, as you mentioned, jose, during this storm we had this earthquake in ohio. that was northwest los angeles north of ventura. it scared a lot of residents as they were waiting for the storm to pass. all of this hit san diego, los angeles, palm springs and riverside county. a tropical storm that as of now fortunately it did create some flash floods. but fortunately we haven't reported major damage to structures other than the roads that we've seen in these videos that were damaged. and of course let's keep in mind that those areas that are still flooded, jose, do pose a threat for anyone that attempts to enter flooded areas. something as simple as driving a vehicle through

many businesses in san diego county are closed today. the san diego unified school district has canceled all classes. some children in san diego are doing what they can to make the best of the situation. when riding down flooded streets on their surfboards. video here of a family in coronado riding their neighborhood streets. we do have you covered throughout this newscast on ktvu fox two. you can also turn to our fox weather app anytime to stay up to date on hillary's track. well the alameda fire department has saved a man from the water early this morning, the fire department said it responded to reports of a car in seaplane lagoon just before 3:00. this is north of the uss hornet, sea air and space museum. rescue swimmers jumped into the water to find a man inside of the car unconscious, not breathing. firefighters took him to a local trauma center. the dive rescue team searched for other victims in the water. no one else was found and no word yet on the man's identity or condition at this time. beginning today, rides are no longer fr

teams from san diego fire department spread up and down the san diego river from the coastline, missionnight who were in harm's way from the raging flood water of the san diego river. so it's been all about preparation, really minimizing the catastrophe here along the coast. the picture utterly different in the desert communities as you're seeing on the screen right there and as you mentioned at the intro to our segment. but in terms of preparation, something very unusual as we push in a couple hundred yards through the bay here, just on the other side of the bay, you see the number 72 through the fog. that is the u.s.s. abraham lincoln, one of the nuclear-powered aircraft of the third fleet. one of the ships that remain in san diego bay. ten other u.s. navy ships in a first ever for the navy have left these waters, the safety of the bay, and have made their way to the channel islands off the coast of santa barbara in an abundance of caution for the choppy waters here, wind gusts up to 60 miles an hour. this is not a great place to be for crowded navy ships and they made the preparation
