The weather could impact this weekend's start of the crab season in the Bay Area. And that may mean residents won't get to feast on a local favorite on New Year's Eve.
The season has already been delayed for over a month, in order to keep humpback whales that are migrating south from getting tangled in the gear.Many crabbers set out their pots when they were allowed to on Wednesday during a break from the storms.But more storms this weekend could make it tough for them to harvest the crab.
"I'm getting a lot of calls, but we're telling them, you know, it's just delayed, and wait for the New Year, basically next week," said Roy Cecchini, owner of Rocky's Quality Meats in San Rafael. Between the rough weather, they're going to have a hard time pulling them and then the few that will probably be pulled, will probably sell them live off the boat because they're able to do that these days.
