It's been a steady down pour since yesterday morning here on the island,can't recall it raining like this around here ever, when I lived in Tofino yes but not here, work just got cancelled so an extra day off,they are calling for 100 ml before noon ,that's in about 5 hours, going to be some flooding I would imagine

 

[S.W.A.T.]

One of my guys that live up by the hope slide said it snowed 2 days ago up top and yesterday the snow was flowing down the road. Not sure what that looks but after seeing news footage I can understand

Didn't they call this system an atmospheric river or something?

 

[tejay]

Yes

Didn't they call this system an atmospheric river or something?

yes they are all atmospheric rivers now , I guess Pineapple Express has gone the way of the dinosaur but never fear I’m sure they have their thesaurus out looking for new words .

Well it finally stopped raining here but there's flooding all over the place,I would call it a atmospheric river just for how long and hard it rained here, pineapple Express is usually hard rain for short periods.no denying things are changing in weather here.
