Heavy Rain and High Freezing Levels

What: Near 50 mm accompanied by high freezing levels.

Where: Elk Valley.

When: Now until this evening.

Impacts: - Heavy rain on snow combined with mountain snow melt could lead to enhanced responses in river systems and potential for flooding.

Remarks: An atmospheric river continues to impact southern B.C. delivering up to 50 mm of rainfall now through this evening.

With freezing levels near or above 2500 metres, snowmelt from higher elevations may increase the impacts associated with this event.

Rain is forecast to subside by this evening and freezing levels will trend downwards as a cold front passes.
