Weather Advisory
1:25 p.m. PST Wednesday 20 November 2024

Weather Advisory in effect for:
  • Greater Victoria
Elevated ocean water levels accompanied by significant wind and waves are expected, likely exceeding highest astronomical tide.

Where: West Vancouver Island, Southern Gulf Islands and Victoria.

When: Today near high tide

High Tide: Now until 4 pm

What: Minor coastal flooding due to storm surge and high tide

Hazards:
- Minor flooding near coastal areas to due waves crashing onshore
- Powerful waves can roll logs and heavy debris along beaches

Additional Information:
Storm surge from gale force southeast winds combined with seasonably high tide will produce elevated water levels for areas near the water across the south coast today. Coastal flooding is possible along exposed shorelines, especially in low-lying areas.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to BCstorm@ec.gc.ca or tweet reports using #BCStorm.
