Once in a great while, a decaying tropical storm can deliver remnant rains to southern California.
That was the case with Hyacinth in 1972, as well as Jen-Kath in 1963.
Dear @MatthewCappucci Has a tropical storm ever come as close to S California as this one is projected to do Friday?

I think there were a few weeks in 2018 when the waters off San Diego county were probably warm enough to support a hurricane. With global warming, at some point all the factors might line up and an actual hurricane could hit San Diego...
Another sea-surface temperature record was broken today, August 8. Scripps scientists with @shoresta100 measured a water temp of 79.2°F (26.3°C) at the end of Scripps Pier.
