Hurricane Marie, a storm born far out over open water, made landfall along the Southern California coast and reminded coastal communities that proximity to the sea carries its own ancient bargain. In Malibu and neighboring areas, residential structures bore the weight of that reckoning — roofs, walls, and the quiet assumptions of daily life all tested in a matter of hours. What the storm took moments to damage will take months, perhaps longer, to restore, as residents and authorities begin the slow, deliberate work of recovery that follows every such visitation.
