On Mount Baldy, the first rain drops began falling around 2 p.m. with temperatures reaching below 40 degrees.
More than a year after the devastating Bridge Fire, residents are preparing for everything.
“We’ve done all we can, you can see all the K-rails, there supposed to be up five years apparently, but yeah, realistically, if it happens, it’s going to happen,” said resident James Thayer.
Thayer said so far, his property hasn’t seen that much damage, but others are gearing up for any possible mudslides and debris flow.
“The rocks are the big thing to be concerned about because that’s what’s going to hit us, now if the landslide happens or something, or the creek opens up too much, the whole road will be demolished,” said Thayer.
In Ontario, the rain started falling closer to 3 p.m. The drive on the 10 Freeway was certainly wet with some drivers losing control. In Riverside, heavy rain isn’t moving in until closer to sunset.
