Less than two weeks after the Los Angeles County fires wreaked havoc, San Diego County was met with multiple brushfires.

The Border 2 Fire, a brush fire that broke out on Otay Mountain near the U.S.-Mexico border in San Diego County on Thursday afternoon, January 23, had burned more than 6,625 acres and was 10% contained as of Sunday.

With parts of Los Angeles County still smoldering from wildfires, the expected rain this weekend would seem like a welcome relief. But how the rain falls could make the difference between a disaster respite or a disaster repeat.

More rain fell Monday on parts of Southern California after causing mudflows over the weekend, helping firefighters but boosting the risk of toxic ash runoff in areas scorched by Los Angeles-area wildfires.
