- 1Pacific hurricanes to miss California while Southwest soaks, heatwave looms●A parade of East Pacific hurricanes will miss CA (but soak the interior Southwest) before major, long-duration autumn heatwave builds
A series of East Pacific hurricanes is expected to steer away from California, sparing the state their direct effects. Their moisture, however, should bring heavy rain to the interior Southwest, potentially triggering flash flooding in desert areas. Meteorologists also flag a major, long-duration autumn heatwave building afterwards across the western United States, extending unseasonably hot conditions into the region.
