A fast-moving spring storm was packing a punch for the North Bay, with bouts of heavy wind and rain. But it spelled out good news for the upcoming fire season.

Saturday, March 30, 2024 2:20AMA fast-moving spring storm was packing a punch Friday, with bouts of heavy wind and rain."I was thinking it wasn't going to be raining all day. We've been having beautiful days but today it's a nonstop rain," Edima said.

By midday, winds were gusting in Santa Rosa and driving required caution and slow speeds. The fire department expects trees to topple before the storm is over. Sonoma Water says Lake Sonoma and Lake Mendocino reservoirs are both nearing capacity after winter rains but there's still room enough to handle rainfall from this storm."Both reservoirs have plenty of space for this next storm to come through. What's nice is they are above the water supply pool, holding extra water. So as we get to the end of the rainy season into the dry summer months, we've got plenty of water," said Andrea Rodriguez from Sonoma Water.
