VANCOUVER — British Columbia's nagging drought could be eased by an incoming weather pattern that may bring a colder and wetter than normal winter, says Sean Fleming, an adjunct UBC professor of atmospheric sciences.
VANCOUVER — British Columbia's nagging drought could be eased by an incoming weather pattern that may bring a colder and wetter than normal winter, says Sean Fleming, an adjunct UBC professor of atmospheric sciences.
If those projections are accurate, Fleming said that could help to"undo some of the persistent drought conditions." "Our meteorologist has been warning that, while drought levels have improved compared to last year, there's still that elevated risk of power outages in the event of a windstorm this fall," she said in an interview.
The latest available data from the province's drought information portal shows that, as of last Thursday, B.C.'s northeastern corner remains at drought Level 5, the highest possible ranking on the scale.
