Southern California was cleaning up Monday after record rainfall triggered landslides and flooding, shuttering schools, roads and businesses in an "unprecedented" tropical storm. Up to 11 inches of rain were recorded in some areas as the tail end of what was once Hurricane Hilary belted through the region.

The deluge from Hilary swamped roads, transforming highways into rivers and stranding some motorists.The start of the public school year was widely delayed for a day, with class postponed in several school districts, including Los Angeles.
