A rainfall warning is in effect for Metro Vancouver as an intense frontal system rapidly approaches the South Coast.
Environment Canada issued the warning Wednesday morning. Moderate rain is expected to start near midday and become heavy tonight.
East Vancouver Island is expected to see the most rainfall, with up to 100 mm of rain before it eases Thursday morning.
The storm is expected to bring up to 80 mm of rain to Howe Sound, the North Shore, and Metro Vancouver regions. However, the heavy rainfall is expected to ease by mid day Thursday.
Environment Canada advises heavy downpours can cause flash floods and water pooling on roads. Localized flooding in low-lying areas is possible.
After Vancouver received a staggering 34 cm of snowfall in five days last week, this week's forecast is calling for seven straight days of rainfall.
