Watch: Southern California homes dangle on edge of cliff after storms cause erosion

Several homes in Southern California, including three in Dana Point, are at risk of falling over a cliff into the ocean due to erosion caused by heavy rain and storms.

Aerial footage shows the homes perched on the edge of an eroded cliff, raising concerns about their stability.

While the homes are being monitored by building inspectors, there is currently no structural damage, and officials have stated that there is no imminent threat to the properties.

The recent storms have led to landslides and erosion in coastal communities, posing a risk to properties built on or near cliffs.

The combination of heavy rain, storms, and coastal erosion has made these threats more common, with the climate crisis exacerbating the situation.

The affected homeowners and local authorities are closely monitoring the situation to ensure the safety of the properties.

Similar incidents, such as a home in Newport Beach remaining dangerously close to tumbling down a cliff after a collapse, have been reported in the region in the past.
