Environment Canada issued a Yellow Rainfall Warning for the Metro Vancouver North Shore at 5:00 am Tuesday, November 10. The warning covers North Vancouver and West Vancouver and is in effect from Tuesday morning until late Wednesday night.

The warning says 60 to 100 mm of rain is expected, with possibly near 120 mm in the mountains. Environment Canada says rainfall rates will increase this afternoon and overnight, reaching up to 5 to 10 mm per hour for several hours. Some easing is expected during Wednesday daytime, before rain picks up again late Wednesday afternoon.

## What to watch for

Environment Canada lists three risks in the warning. Water will likely pool on roads and in low-lying areas. Visibility will likely be reduced at times. Landslides may occur in areas with steep slopes, deforested areas or recent burn scars. Residents are advised to watch for washouts near rivers, creeks and culverts.

Winds from the east are forecast at 30 km/h with gusts to 50 km/h near the water on Tuesday, rising to gusts up to 60 km/h near the water overnight.

## North Shore conditions

An Orange Rainfall Warning, rated High Impact by Environment Canada, is also in effect for the Squamish to Whistler corridor immediately north of the North Shore. That warning covers 120 to 160 mm of rain through Thursday morning.

CityNews Vancouver reported Tuesday morning that Metro Vancouver has been hit by another strong storm system, and that the North Shore is expected to see the heaviest rainfall of any area in the region.

## What residents can do

Residents can check the Environment Canada weather page for North Vancouver at weather.gc.ca for updates to the warning as conditions change. The warning may be extended or cancelled depending on how the storm moves. Residents on steep slopes or near creeks should take the landslide risk seriously for the duration of the warning, through late Wednesday night.
