California may be famous for earthquakes and wildfires, but residents are now being warned to brace for a very different threat — a tropical storm with potential to pack a serious punch. Los Angeles County officials are urging residents not to let Southern California’s typically mild tropical weather lull them into a false sense of security as Tropical Storm Marie churns through the Pacific and could strengthen in the days ahead. “Don’t underestimate the storm,” the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department warned in a social media post.
