Hurricane Marie Weakens but Brings Rain and High Surf to Southern California
US · Published Sep 7, 2026
Hurricane Marie, currently weakening in the Pacific Ocean, is not expected to make landfall in Southern California but has brought tropical moisture and elevated surf to the region.
Rainfall began on Saturday night and is expected to continue through Sunday, with most areas receiving up to 0.25 inches of rain.

Impact & Risks

The storm's remnants have caused minor flooding in low-lying coastal areas, including Long Beach and Malibu. The high surf and rip currents have led to warnings for beachgoers, with lifeguards urging caution. Roads may become slick due to oil buildup after months of dry weather, increasing the risk of accidents. While the rain is expected to be mostly beneficial, localized flooding and dangerous beach conditions remain concerns.
