VANCOUVER — Pouring rain is on the way again for parts of British Columbia’s southern coast.
Environment Canada issued rainfall warnings for Howe Sound and Metro Vancouver’s North Shore and northeast, including Coquitlam and Maple Ridge.
It says 40 to 60 millimetres of rainfall can be expected to fall between Wednesday and Thursday night.
The forecaster says the rain is the result of a slow moving frontal system descending across the south coast.
The same system has also triggered a coastal flooding statement for areas of Metro Vancouver, where water levels are expected to be higher than normal due to a combination of high tides and winds.
Environment Canada says it could result in possible flooding across Metro Vancouver’s coastal areas.
It says landslides could also occur in vulnerable areas such as steep slopes, deforested areas or recent burn scars due to the heavy rainfall on the North Shore, Howe Sound and Sea to Sky regions.
Environment Canada says water will likely pool on roads and in low-lying areas creating hazards for drivers.
