When: Today into next week.
Additional information:
More rainfall is in store over the upcoming days for the already saturated Fraser Valley.
A weather system is expected to move onto the South Coast today with heavy rain beginning tonight. On Monday, another system arrives with a more significant push of moisture. Rainfall amounts with this system are more similar to typical fall storms and will likely range from 40 to 60 mm. Strong winds gusting up to 80 km/h will also accompany this system.
Given the impacts from the recent atmospheric river and current vulnerability, rainfall warnings may be issued Sunday.
Also, there is an increased risk of landslide activity with the additional precipitation causing further slope destabilization.
