I'm the opposite... I can't stand our "usual" rain, but I don't mind days like this. At least it's not half-assed. In my opinion, there are few things worse than suffering through a whole week of rain and only ending up with 50 mm to show for it.

100 mm for the storm in Burke Mountain, 622 mm for the month. New record.
20 mm in the last 2 jours. Insane here.

Just got home. The rain is just coming down here in Coquitlam. I see the North Coquitlam gauge has recorded 11.5mm in the past hour alone!

Definitely a soggy day down this way, with streams and ponds extra-high. I live on a low plateau that contains a mosaic of wetlands, so thereâ€™s lots of swollen ponds and streams to see. Thankfully, being a plateau area, thereâ€™s no water coming in from elsewhere upstream to make it flood. Everything we get falls right here from the sky then slowly drains away.

Just got home as well. 46.9 mm so far today. 62.9 mm past 48 hours. Abbotsford is lame when it comes to AR events and often when it comes to snowfall. Its a frustrating location for the type of weather I enjoy. Its either the S winds or dry NE winds that messes things up for me.

Oh well, this is still an impressive storm for my location and now the winds are blowing the heavy rain around.

I wouldn't give up on this event just yet for you valley folks. The HRDPS pummels you guys later this evening and overnight.

Sardines my station is flashing "Flooding Possible." You can't see it flashing in the photo but it sure is.

18Z GFS is insane. After this AR event, we go to snow and then another AR event late next week?

Here's the 18Z GFS meteogram for Abbotsford:

Looks like temps will hover around 0C tomorrow night...will be lots of black ice around Sunday morning.

Temps will fall thru the day tomorrow after the cold front pushes through from the NW. Will see midnight highs around 10C falling to around 6C by the afternoon.

High level winds are just ripping by right now. The clouds are sailing.
Not much wind at ground level. Light gusty winds.
Temp 11.0

The amount of rain today was insane but totally awesome.
Can't believe there is not more photos of flooding or report on the news/social media.

Although, heading south down 168 street, just south of Fraser Highway you can see all the fields are totally flooded. Looks like a new lake!!
