Coastal Fire Weather Weekend Forecast

It’s looking good (depending on your point of view) for significant rain this weekend. Depending on the timing and amount (stay tuned to ESPOKES) we may open up for campfires again.

We will post as soon as the data comes in from our fire weather stations.

Weather Forecast

SYNOPSIS: A series of frontal systems will impact B.C. over the next several days, delivering cooler temperatures, rain and strong winds. Friday brings the arrival of a strong Pacific storm off the coast. Moderate to heavy rain for the North and Central Coast, along with North and West Vancouver is expected, along with strong winds for coastal sections of Haida Gwaii, North and Central Coast. Wind gusts will be in the 30-60 km/h range. More rain will fall in the Central Coast and the northern portions of the South Coast Thursday.

OUTLOOK:
Saturday to Monday
A slow-moving front will likely to set up from South Coast into the Columbia Region on Saturday. Winds will take a step back with less gusting than Friday. Temperatures will continue to be seasonal or slightly below. Persistent light to moderate rain is forecast for the Northshore Mountains, Howe Sound and Sunshine Coast.

Sunday will see another storm hit the coast. There looks to be significant rainfall for central and northern zones. Winds will once again increase, gusting 30-50 km/h for most of the Coastal Fire Centre. On Monday, the back end of the system will linger, producing showers and light rain but lighter winds.

Save the Date: Health Talk Series #2 - Climate Change & Respiratory Health

Wednesday October 15th, 2:00 - 4:00 pm
Forbes Hall

Speaker: Angela Eykelbosh, PhD, Environmental Health Scientist, Island Health

As our climate becomes warmer and drier, the increased frequency of droughts and wildfires will have implications for air quality both inside and outside our homes. This session will provide an overview of recent climate projections for Thetis Island and Penelakut and will discuss the implications for respiratory health. We will discuss some practical options for reducing exposure to particulate matter, using tools such as low-cost sensors, air cleaners (including DIY air cleaners), and clean wood burning practices.

A presentation of the Forbes Hall Health Services Group. For more information please contact:
