12z HRDPS. Looks like the Victoria area gets hit pretty hard. Also the central Island. :shock:

A little more than 30mm of rain here overnight and this morning. Getting the occasional strong wind gust. Enough that the power is out at home.

I feel like the North Shore often gets less wind. It's pretty quiet here at Edgemont too.

That's quite a soaking! The system didn't seem like a big rain producer, at least over here.

It usually becomes Richmond and Vancouver's turn once the winds swing around from S or SW to W or NW. I'm gonna be listening to the wind at home this evening.
