Meanwhile some heavy rain continue to fall and saying that some areas especially the higher elevation we sit could see 200 perhaps even 300 millimeters of rain. So would be higher temperature with all that rains. Snow packing is melting that’s gonna to push some areas just pass the break they say. A reserving starting to see some isolated flooding that affect the street in Stanley Park has been flooded, some streets and in surrey and maple ridge. Meanwhile most of the lower mainland as well as the north shore all under the flood watch. There has been a flood warning issued for a four rivers on Vancouver island which means they’ve already hit the capacity, some cases probably already starting to flood and if this heavy rain continues that only going to get worse.
