‘Gigantic’ landslides hit California coastal town: ‘Watching their homes crumble’

[Hume]

California Gov. Gavin Newsom proclaimed a state of emergency on Tuesday for the city of Rancho Palos Verdes amid the ongoing land movement threatening hundreds of homes.

The proclamation, issued early Tuesday afternoon, comes as the city works frantically to mitigate the damage from the slow-motion natural disaster, which has displaced many residents and caused officials to shut off electricity indefinitely to hundreds of homes in the community.

“The city is located on four out of five sub-slides that comprise the Greater Portuguese Landslide Complex,” the governor’s office said Tuesday. “Land movement at that part of the complex has significantly accelerated following severe storms in 2023 and 2024.”
