- Marie has weakened below hurricane strength, with the National Hurricane Center's Sunday night update placing top winds at 70 mph and the center about 695 miles southwest of San Diego; forecasters expect the system to lose its tropical structure late Tuesday or early Wednesday.
- Flooding tied to Marie's rain bands swamped streets and overflowed the Lagunitas creek in Los Cabos, Baja California Sur, prompting school closures and port shutdowns; no deaths tied to the flooding had been confirmed in the reports we reviewed.
- Southern California beaches from Los Angeles to San Diego remain under high surf and coastal flood advisories, with some waves topping 10 feet and lifeguards warning of dangerous rip currents.
- Moisture pulled north from Marie is feeding the Southwest monsoon, keeping flash-flood danger elevated in Utah's national parks and the Grand Canyon, a week after flooding there killed two people.
Marie is no longer a hurricane. The system that spent the better part of a week churning off Mexico's Pacific coast dropped to tropical storm strength overnight, with the National Hurricane Center's Sunday evening advisory putting its top sustained winds at 70 miles per hour. But the flooding it left behind in Baja California Sur, the dangerous surf pounding Southern California beaches, and the flash-flood threat it is feeding as far away as the Grand Canyon are all still playing out this week.
