Yellow Warning - Rainfall

Another period of rain for the west coast.

When: Today.

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

Remarks: Another moisture laden low pressure system is moving across the South Coast today. Rain will ease to light to moderate showers this evening. Total rainfall amounts of 40 to 70 mm 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.
