Election day is shaping up to be a wet one for voters on British Columbia’s South Coast.
Environment Canada has issued a rainfall warning for Metro Vancouver, Howe Sound, sections of the Sea-to-Sky highway south of Whistler and the west coast of Vancouver Island.
Special weather statements are also in place for the Fraser Valley and parts of southern Vancouver Island as the season’s first atmospheric river bears down.
“A strong fall storm system will direct an atmospheric river towards the South Coast, bringing heavy rain to the region. Rain will begin Friday morning and intensify through the afternoon and evening, with the heaviest rain expected Saturday morning and early afternoon,” Environment Canada said.
“Rain should ease on Saturday evening, though a second pulse of rain is expected Sunday.”
