Vancouver weather: Rainfall warning for North Shore [Video]

Parts of Metro Vancouver are being advised to brace for a soggy start to the week with a rainfall warning in place for some cities.

Environment Canada issued a rainfall warning for North Vancouver and West Vancouver Monday, saying about 50 millimetres is expected to fall.

“A moist Pacific frontal system will bring heavy rain to the North Shore,” the alert says. “The rain will begin this morning and will end late tonight.”

People are advised to watch for possible washouts near rivers, creeks and culverts. Some localized flooding in low-lying areas is also possible, the warning says.

It’ll still be a wet day for the city of Vancouver, where up to 20 millimetres of rain is expected to fall Monday. Temperatures will remain fairly moderate, with highs of 9 C and lows of 7 C predicted.
