They all have their strengths and weaknesses, just depends on conditions. This latest impulse seemed really overdone on EC... was showing orange and red over me, but the rain was barely moderate.

I use either EC or Atmos generally. https://atmos.uw.edu/current-weather/northwest-radar/

EC is usually more accurate, but Atmos is doing better tonight.

Some of the damage on Hwy 3 between Hope and Manning Park. 23 separate sections of that stretch of Hwy 3 have sustained damage due to heavy rainfall.

It is absolutely bonkers outside right now. Rain is hammering down and the wind just picked up big-time. I hear stuff falling and crashing all over. I wonder how long the power will stay on...

Tons of power outages out there, here included.

Hydro is going to have a busy day.

No wind warnings though just the special weather statement.

EC has Port Hardy and Squamish seeing some snow towards the end of the week. Would this be a Victory? :think: :think:

For mobile/iPad/tablet it’s RadarScope by a million country miles, one time payment but infinitely worth it.

That was easily the worst windstorm since I moved to my current location.

51.0 mm storm total rainfall.
It's called clown range for a reason.
