A rainfall warning for Metro Vancouver has ended following a nasty spell of weather on B.C.’s South Coast, but parts of Vancouver Island remain under high streamflow advisory.
More than 80 millimetres of rain fell on Vancouver between 10 a.m. Wednesday and early Friday morning, with even more rainfall recorded in other parts of the Lower Mainland. West Vancouver saw 106 millimetres of precipitation.
Most of that rain fell Thursday, leading to some flooding in Stanley Park and on roads around Burnaby and Surrey.
