Metro Vancouver’s first fall storm tapers off ending a special weather statement

Sep 26 2023, 1:06 am

Metro Vancouver was hit with its first storm of the fall season today, which prompted the Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) to issue a special weather statement for much of the region.

Just before 6 pm Monday, the weather statement ended after a day of wind warnings, power outages, and cancelled BC Ferries sailings. 

However, there still remains a risk of thunderstorms early this evening, according to ECCC. 

And tomorrow may be a thunderstorm-filled day. 

“Showers beginning late in the morning. Risk of thunderstorms late in the afternoon. Wind southeast 30 km/h gusting to 50. High 15,” ECCC’s forecast reads, adding that showers are expected along with (again) a risk of thunderstorms early in the evening.

Southeast winds 30 km/h gusting to 50 will continue through Tuesday.
