TL;DR
A mansion in Dana Point, California, is now teetering on the edge of a cliff following a landslide caused by heavy rain and an atmospheric river. Officials have stated that the home is not in immediate danger, as it is built on caissons anchored to bedrock. The city recommended the owner conduct a professional engineering inspection as a precaution, but confirmed that the house is not threatened and will not be red-tagged. Another storm is expected to bring more heavy rain, flooding, and snow to the region in the coming days.
