Heavy rain and snow pummel parts of B.C. as winter storms bring more warnings
Stormy weather in British Columbia has dropped more than 200 millimetres of rain on parts of the central coast and more than 70 centimetres of snow near the Alaska Panhandle.
Environment Canada says more stormy weather is on the way, which has triggered a number of warnings in northern B.C.
The agency says the winter storm that struck parts of central and northern B.C. over the weekend dumped 245 mm of rain on the Addenbroke Lighthouse about 100 kilometres north of Port Hardy, while 209 mm fell at Bella Bella’s airport.
The wintry weather also dropped 73 cm of snow on Stewart, on the province’s border with Alaska.
