British Columbia Coast Prepares for Incoming Storms Bringing Heavy Rain and Strong Winds

Environment Canada has issued special weather statements for a series of strong storms forecast to impact British Columbia's coast from November 10-12. These systems are expected to bring prolonged heavy rainfall, particularly to higher elevations, and strong winds across Vancouver Island and the provincial coasts. The anticipated weather could lead to additional damage and widespread electricity disruptions, following recent severe events that caused a fatality, evacuations, and nearly 415,000 power outages.
