Metro Vancouver Weather Forecast

There’s potential for strong winds and heavy rainfall as the next Pacific storm reaches the south coast on Thursday.

A developing low pressure system over the Pacific will intensify rapidly tonight as it tracks towards the BC coast. The low is expected to make landfall somewhere along Vancouver Island on Thursday.

The weather agency says that “details on the exact track and timing remain uncertain at this time”.

There is the potential for both damaging winds and heavy rainfall but determining which regions will be most impacted depends on the precise details of the track and timing.

Environment Canada notes that “wind and rainfall warnings will likely be issued for some regions later today as the storm details become more certain”.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada for the upcoming Metro Vancouver weather forecast.
