Dodger Stadium’s incredible transformation after Tropical Storm Hilary flooding left massive moat around it

Dodger Stadium is seemingly back to normal just hours after flooding from Tropical Storm Hilary appeared to have left a huge moat of rainwater.

Americans were shocked by footage of the famous stadium appearing to have been engulfed by a sea of ​​water on Sunday after Southern California’s first tropical storm in 84 years.

But the LA Dodgers shared an update on the stadium’s condition on Monday, which showed that everything was under control as the location was trending on social media.

Dodger Stadium trending? We understand it. It looks beautiful this morning,” the Dodger’s post read.

Footage shared Monday shows the stadium looking dry just hours after the parking lot was pictured flooded.

Dodger Stadium flooded Sunday night as the eye of the storm swept through Los Angeles

However, images from Sunday showed that the stadium’s diamond was completely surrounded by water.

The field itself, which is at a lower elevation, remained intact, but floodwaters climbed down trees and streetlights outside the venue, with roads completely submerged.

However, social media users pointed out that the wet black tarmac around the stadium could have acted as an optical illusion to make the flooding appear worse than it actually was.

The storm’s center moved from east of Murrieta at 5 p.m. to over Compton around 8 p.m. and hit the heart of Los Angeles as it passed over Dodger’s stadium at about 8:15 p.m., according to the Los Angeles Times.

Fortunately, the storm had downgraded from a hurricane to a post-tropical storm by the time it hit the stadium.

The Dodgers had to move their Sunday game against the Miami Marlins and instead played a double header on Saturday.

They face a number of road series this week — against the Cleveland Guardians and the Boston Red Sox — before their home game against the Diamondbacks.

Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Angels’ game against the Cincinnati Reds, scheduled for Monday-evening, has been postponed due to the effects of Tropical Storm Hilary.

Southern California was battered Sunday and into the wee hours of Monday morning, with the city of Palm Springs receiving more than half a year of rain in just a few hours. Residents have been warned that 911 lines are not working and the mayor admitted, “There is no way in or out.”

Panicked Californians were trapped in cars and climbed trees to escape dangerous flooding and mudslides as Hilary tore down bridges and power lines.

Cars were left stranded on flooded roads as the storm wreaked havoc across the state, placing 25 million people under flood warnings and raising fears of devastating devastation.

The state has seen record levels of downpours with mountain and desert areas predicted to receive five to four inches of rain on Monday — as much as the deserts typically see in a year.

Hilary crossed into Nevada at 5 a.m. ET Monday and the weather system will move into Idaho and Montana in the early hours of Tuesday

Aerial footage after the storm shows feet of mud collected around houses and vehicles in the cathedral making it impossible for some residents to even open their front doors, let alone move their cars.

The Lee Canyon ski area north of Las Vegas is also being evacuated by the National Guard as the roads around the mountain have been completely washed away. Hilary is the first tropical storm ever to hit Nevada.

It is now feared that Burning Man could be washed away as the Nevada deserts are ravaged by the storm. Hilary crossed into Nevada at 5 a.m. ET on Monday, and the storm will move into Idaho and Montana in the early hours of Tuesday.

Schools in SoCal and Nevada were closed Monday and 800 flights were cancelled. Travelers are being warned of travel disruptions at San Diego International Airport, Harry Reid in Nevada and Sky Harbor in Phoenix.

Hilary is now moving north and will attack Nevada later today. It would be the first time the state has been hit by a tropical storm and has been warned of flooding.

Wind gusts of 35 mph and sustained downpours knocked out power lines and flooded roads, trapping dozens of motorists in their vehicles.

Further devastation is expected tomorrow morning in parts of Oregon and Idaho, where residents have been warned of catastrophic flooding.

Hilary is expected to clear later on Monday and Tuesday, though moisture from the storm is expected to linger into Wednesday and Thursday in some parts.

Many airlines waived change fees for flights scheduled through Monday to or from Los Cabos and a handful of airports in Southern California, Nevada and Arizona.

The storm is currently downgraded to a post-tropical storm, though experts continue to warn that Hilary will bring heavy rains and strong winds.
