Yellow Warning - Rainfall

Periods of rain continues.

When: Now to this evening.

Where: Howe Sound and Sea-to-Sky region.

Remarks: A moisture laden low pressure system brought heavy rain to the region Saturday night. In the wake of the system, periods of rain will continue today and ease to light showers this evening. Total rainfall amounts near 40 are possible.

Already saturated ground from a series of storms earlier in the week will lessen the soil's ability to absorb moisture, which could intensify the impacts of this round of heavy rain.

###

Water will likely pool on roads and in low-lying areas. Visibility will likely be suddenly reduced at times.
