A series of atmospheric rivers is predicted to hit the eastern and central side of Vancouver Island, and according to the B-C River Forecast Centre could play havoc with streams and infrastructure.
A flood watch is expected to last into tomorrow, and with temperatures warming up, the centre says there’s the potential for rising water levels on roads and in riverbanks.
Everyone is being urged to stay away from streams and exercise caution as the system moves through the area, and to have a flood plan in place should the situation escalate.
