The latest atmospheric river to wash over British Columbia is expected to soak parts of the South Coast with as much as 150 millimetres of rain in a series of waves that won’t relent until Thursday, says Environment Canada.
Rainfall warnings are in place across the west coast of Vancouver Island and the inner South Coast, including Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.
The storm’s first torrent on Tuesday is to be followed by a second intense gush Wednesday and a final one early Thursday, says the weather office.
Forecasters warned warmer temperatures accompanying the storm could push freezing levels as high as 2,500
