As more rain makes its way into San Diego, the city sent bulldozers to Pacific Beach to set up a sand berm as a preventative measure.

PACIFIC BEACH (CBS 8) - As more rain makes its way into San Diego, the city sent bulldozers to Pacific Beach to set up a sand berm as a preventative measure.

Big waves and strong rip currents are also in the forecast. A high surf advisory will extend from 8 a.m. today until 8 p.m. Saturday.

A swell of 7 to 8 feet at 12 to 13 seconds from the west-northwest will bring high surf to the west-facing beaches of Orange and San Diego counties from this morning through Saturday evening.

Crews hope the sand berms will prevent water damage to nearby areas.
