A windstorm with gusts of up to 66 km/h knocked out power across Langley and Aldergrove Saturday night into Sunday, leaving some residents without electricity for up to eight hours, the Langley Advance Times reported Sunday.

At 1 a.m. Sunday, 135,000 customers across British Columbia were without power, according to BC Hydro data cited in the article. By 7 a.m., 63,000 customers remained out. BC Hydro said the storm had produced more than 380,000 reported outages since Friday, with 317,000 restored by Sunday morning.

A second storm system is now on its way. Environment Canada issued a Special Weather Statement at 3:53 a.m. Monday for Metro Vancouver southeast, including Surrey and Langley. It says heavy rainfall and strong winds are expected from Tuesday through Thursday, with potential localized flooding in areas with poor drainage.

## What BC Hydro said

Whitney Deane, a BC Hydro spokesperson, said in a statement cited by the Langley Advance Times: "We prepared for this storm and had crews and resources ready to respond immediately. Our crews are making good progress, but with strong winds continuing this morning, we expect to see additional damage and outages before conditions improve."

The storm brought down trees and branches that damaged power lines, poles and electrical equipment. RCMP responded to multiple incidents involving fallen trees on roadways, the Langley Advance Times reported. The article names no private individuals involved in those incidents.

The hardest-hit areas in BC during the Saturday-Sunday storm included Surrey, Duncan, Port Hardy and Prince George, according to the Langley Advance Times.

## What is coming Tuesday

Environment Canada's Special Weather Statement, issued Monday at 3:53 a.m., says a significant storm system will bring heavy rainfall and strong winds to the Metro Vancouver southeast area, which includes Surrey and Langley, from Tuesday through Thursday.

The statement warns of potential localized flooding due to poor drainage in some areas. It advises residents to clear storm drains of debris before the storm arrives Tuesday.
