The Metro 麻豆传媒映画weather forecast includes a parade of storms to kick off the week — but the heavy rain is expected to ease up mid-week.
Environment Canada was expecting one of the strongest atmospheric rivers to drench the Lower Mainland with substantial rainfall. While it received significant precipitation over the weekend, 麻豆传媒映画Island and the local mountains received the majority of the wet weather.
Monday morning saw a brief reprieve from the rain and some significantly milder temperatures. V.I.A.'s Downtown Centre Weatherhood station shows a high of 15 C and a low of 13 C, with similar temperatures expected on Tuesday (a high of 14 C and a low of 12 C).
The average daytime high for Metro 麻豆传媒映画is just shy of 7 C and the low is 0.7 C, according to the department's historical climate data.
Environment Canada meteorologist Lisa Erven told V.I.A. that a potent system moving from the south will continue to bring atmospheric rivers to the south coast over the next couple of days.
The system will hit the coast as a "parade of storms" with small breaks in between. While it will be more focused on 麻豆传媒映画Island, the Sunshine Coast, and Howe Sound, parts of Metro 麻豆传媒映画will see as much as 10 to 20 mm of rainfall on Monday night.
"Periods of precipitation are expected over the next few days but not enough to warrant a rainfall warning," she explained, noting that the forecast models have been changing from day to day.
Multiple storms have been tracking along a southerly flow from California, which has produced milder temperatures. Paired with subtropical air from Hawaii, the region has experienced record-breaking highs in places like West 麻豆传媒映画and Whistler. The former saw a high of 13.9 C, breaking the previous record of 12.7 C, set in 1995.
