Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for North Shore. Another round of heavy rain is on the way.
As much as 80 mm is expected. However, there remains some uncertainty in total forecast rainfall amounts.
The statement is in effect for Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, particularly near the mountains, as well as the Sea to Sky corridor and the Sunshine Coast from Gibsons to Earls Cove.
The warning is in effect from Wednesday night through early Friday morning. Strong southeast winds near the water are expected on Thursday.
This storm will be shorter lived and less intense than the event over November 13 to 15.
However, it will still bring moderate to heavy rain and strong winds. Additionally, freezing levels will rise above mountain tops on Thursday.
This may worsen recent flooding and impact vulnerable landscapes and infrastructure.
