Rain forecast ahead

The National Weather Service reports that another storm system is coming to the Southland this weekend. Right now, forecast models show a weak system could hit Saturday night through Sunday, but a more powerful system will come Sunday night through Tuesday.

The current rainfall totals are projected to be 2 to 5 inches from Sunday through Wednesday for coastal and valley areas, and between 4 to 8 inches in the foothills and mountains.

Projected snow levels right now are in the 7,000 elevation range.

Weather forecasters say with the amount of rain we saw last week, significant hydrologic issues — especially in the hills where more mudslides and rockslides — could follow.

This day in history

On this day in 1990, snowflakes were reported in San Diego metro area but no accumulations.
