The exact path of the storm remained in flux Thursday, with forecasters noting that even slight shifts in its track could dramatically impact rainfall totals.
"Regardless of the exact track and intensity of Hilary, which could continue to change in the coming days, it will bring a substantial surge in moisture into Southern California, with heavy rainfall and a high potential for flash flooding, especially for the mountains and deserts," according to the National Weather Service.
NWS officials said flood watches could be issued as early as Thursday in anticipation of the heavy rains. “We’re not only just making sure that we’re staffed up and that our crews have the resources they need,” said Alex Welling, a communications manager at SDG&E. “Making sure that they have all their vehicles, their tools, any necessary equipment that they might need to make repairs. But, they’re also on alert.”
The utility has replaced wooden power poles with steel, put some lines underground and added thicker insulation to wires.
