Metro Vancouver is going to get hit by several storms this week, too.
The Metro Vancouver weather forecast includes stormy conditions for the next week, starting with a meteorological bang.
Unlike the hailstorm, however, Environment Canada has observed the potent weather system moving south from the Gulf of Alaska since last week. The bomb cyclone - also called rapid cyclogenesis - occurs when a mid-latitude, low-pressure system drops over 24 millibars in 24 hours. Proctor notes that BC Hydro can take longer to get the power back online following outages during storms, so people should have a 72-hour emergency kit ready.
