Eastern Vancouver Island should brace for heavy rainfall after Environment and Climate Change Canada issued a rainfall advisory.
The rainfall is expected to hit tonight (Dec. 14) and expected to end at noon tomorrow, and they say it could bring significant rainfall causing dangerous conditions on roads.
“Water will likely pool on roads and in low-lying areas,” they say.
They say light rain will start throughout most of the day before the frontal system hits, with some areas expected to get more than 50 millimeters of rain around Qualicum Beach and Fanny Bay.
Environment and Climate Change Canada are asking everyone to avoid driving on flooding roads, and watch for washouts near rivers, creeks and culverts.
