Hurricane Marie may bring rain and high surf to Southern California for Labor Day

Hurricane Marie, upgraded from Tropical Storm Marie, may bring rain, gusty winds, and high surf to Southern California over Labor Day weekend, potentially disrupting holiday plans. Forecast models show uncertainty in the storm's track, with most plots keeping it offshore. The National Weather Service warns of a high chance of large waves and rip currents, plus a moderate risk of coastal flooding and light rain. Spaghetti models, run by global agencies, visualize possible storm paths using supercomputer computations. Their spread indicates forecast confidence, with clustered lines suggesting higher certainty, while trends and consistency help experts refine predictions.
