Flash flood watch in effect
A flash flood watch is in effect for the San Bernardino Mountains for this afternoon through Saturday morning, particularly around the Butler II Fire.
The National Weather Service said about a quarter to a half-inch of rain could fall on the mountains during that time.
Some mountain areas could see as much as 1 ½ inches of rain.
There's a 50 percent chance of showers today in the mountains and high winds will be blowing between 10 to 20 mph, with gusts up to 30 mph. The chance of rain will increase by nightfall.
The rest of the Inland Empire will be cloudy this morning and some rain may fall today. There's a 70 percent chance of rain tonight and a 50 percent chance through Saturday afternoon, forecasters said.
Saturday night will remain cloudy, but no more rain is expected for the rest of the weekend.
