British Columbia Braces for Third Major Storm with Heavy Rain and Strong Winds After Fatal Weekend Weather
British Columbia is preparing for a third in a series of powerful storms, forecast by Environment Canada to bring heavy rain and strong winds from Tuesday through Thursday, November 10-12. Gusts up to 110 km/h are expected in Haida Gwaii and North Vancouver Island, with significant rainfall over higher terrain. This follows weekend storms that caused one fatality, evacuations in Zeballos, and left hundreds of thousands without power, with approximately 6,000 customers still affected as of Monday morning. The ongoing heavy rainfall increases the risk of localized flooding.
