=Hurricane Dolores (2015)=

Hurricane Dolores was a strong and moderately damaging tropical cyclone whose remnants brought heavy rains and strong winds to California. The fifth depression and second named storm of the record-breaking 2015 Pacific hurricane season, Dolores formed from a tropical wave on July 11.

Meteorological history
A westward-moving tropical wave crossed Central America and entered the Eastern Pacific on July 9. On July 11, the system was declared Tropical Depression Five-E while located roughly 345 mi (555 km) south-southeast of Acapulco, Mexico. Amid moderate northwesterly wind shear, the depression gradually strengthened into Tropical Storm Dolores and reached hurricane status on July 13. As Dolores moved roughly parallel to the coast of Mexico, the shear over the system decreased, allowing for a burst of rapid intensification. Dolores peaked as a Category 4 hurricane with winds of 130 mph (215 km/h) and a minimum pressure of 946 mbar (hPa; 27.94 inHg) early on July 15. However, as Dolores approached Socorro Island, the cyclone underwent an eyewall replacement cycle and began to steadily weaken. The storm remained potent though as it passed Socorro Island, with an automated weather station on the island recording sustained hurricane-force winds. Despite completing the cycle on July 16, Dolores had moved over cooler sea surface temperatures, and hence continued its weakening trend. By the morning of July 17, Dolores had deteriorated to a tropical storm, and eventually degenerated into a post-tropical remnant low about 300 mi (480 km) west of the Baja California coast the next day. The remnant low slowly curved southwards and dissipated on July 22 well west of San Diego, California.

Impact
Moisture extending from the storm's remnants brought record rains and thunderstorms to Southern California; record monthly rainfall totals include 1.70 in in San Diego, 1.30 in in Los Angeles, and 1.16 in in Paso Robles. In the foothills and mountains of east San Diego County, rainfall exceeded 4 in. This had the effect of helping firefighters contain the North Fire, but also resulted in debris flows and rock slides that damaged about 90 homes and submerged cars. The San Diego River reached levels of 8.9 ft—just below flood stage—and overflowed its banks in a few areas. Flash flooding occurred in Moreno Valley, Perris, and La Mesa, while a microburst occurred in Tierrasanta. A haboob was also recorded in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. Strong winds blew over a semi truck as well as power poles and lines on Interstate 40 near the California-Nevada border, obstructing the road in both directions and causing $75,000 in damage. In Kern County, a 62-year-old man was killed by a lightning strike. A bridge along Interstate 10 near Desert Center was washed out, injuring one. Damage to the bridge was placed at $50 million. Another road was washed out by flash flooding, this time along State Route 78 southwest of Cibola, Arizona, with damage totaling $50,000. Hail the size of golf balls was recorded in Bear Valley, Alpine County, damaging a police vehicle. Losses across California reached $50.477 million.
