How a mix of natural and human-caused factors cooked up Tropical Storm Hilary's soggy mess

  • The record-breaking rainfall brought by Tropical Storm Hilary to California and Nevada was attributed to a combination of factors, including a natural El Nino event, human-caused climate change, and a persistent heat dome over the region.
  • Hilary rapidly intensified due to unusually warm ocean temperatures and favorable atmospheric conditions, reaching Category 4 hurricane status in a short amount of time.
  • The storm's unusual path towards California was the result of a combination of factors: the failure of prevailing winds, the presence of a low-pressure system, and a stagnant hot air mass over the central United States.
