With a wet weekend on the horizon, the first since the devastating North Bay wildfires, officials at state and local agencies are worrying about what winter rains will carry into the bay.

"When it rains, that debris is just going to get washed into the water, especially because the trees are gone and there's going to be more sediment erosion."
