Southeasterly winds of 60 to 80 km/h have been whipping across the region, however they are expected to ease this afternoon as the front moves inland. However, Tuesday night, the weather agency warns that聽strong westerly winds up to 70 km/h are expected to develop over Greater Victoria near Juan de Fuca Strait this evening. The winds will ease Wednesday morning.

Meanwhile, a rainfall warning is in effect for portions of Metro Vancouver, including聽Coquitlam, Maple Ridge, and West and North Vancouver. Those areas are due for the most rainfall of this storm, and they could see 40 to 60 mm of rainfall Tuesday.
