What Made Hilary Such A Weird Storm

Jill Trepanier, an associate professor at Louisiana State University, dives into the recent transformation of Hurricane Hilary from a hurricane to a tropical storm, marking a rare event for Southern California. She discusses the storm's unprecedented impact and its connections to climate change. Trepanier explains the challenges of forecasting storm impacts in the area due to limited historical data and emphasizes the need to adapt to a 'new normal' as weather patterns evolve. Her insights paint a picture of how science can help us prepare for future climatic events.
