SEA TO SKY - SQUAMISH TO WHISTLER
SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT

Prolonged atmospheric river event. When: -Sunday afternoon to Wednesday morning. Impacts: -Prolonged heavy rain on snow combined with mountain snow melt will lead to very enhanced responses in river systems and potential for flooding. -Extensive water pooling on roads and wash-outs may occur. -Enhanced risk of landslides due to saturation of landscapes. Remarks: An atmospheric river will begin to make landfall over the Lower Mainland on Sunday and will remain over the region until Wednesday bringing heavy rain. The rain could be mixed with snow on Sunday as the freezing levels will initially lower to near sea level, but the freezing levels will quickly rise on Sunday night and reach 2500 to 3000 metres on Monday morning. The heaviest rainfall is expected on Monday and Tuesday. Although there is still uncertainty regarding rainfall amounts associated with this atmospheric river, total rainfall amounts could exceed 150 mm. The rain will ease on Wednesday afternoon. Weather in the mountains can change suddenly resulting in hazardous driving conditions. Road conditions are available at drivebc.ca. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to BCstorm@ec.gc.ca or post reports on X using #BCStorm.
