Tropical Storm Rosa has diminished from a Pacific hurricane, but will still bring strong winds and dangerous rip currents to southern California on Oct. 1, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) said.

It could also bring life-threatening flash floods to central Arizona over the next few days, the NHC added.
