As Hurricane Hilary makes its way toward Southern California, many have eyes on the historic Casa Romantica in San Clemente, which was heavily damaged earlier this year by a landslide.
The impact of Hurricane Hilary on Orange County's coastal communities and beaches is yet to be seen, but people have been preparing for days.
"We're putting that visqueen, that plastic tarp, on top of the hillside to prepare for any kind of damage that may occur due to the rainfall," said San Clemente Mayor Chris Duncan on Friday. "They're going to move probably some dirt around, try and kind of get it situated so that it's least likely to slide with a lot of moisture that we're expecting."
The city of Huntington Beach opened up a sandbag station for people who want secure their homes from the incoming storm.
