More rain is coming!!!

Another round of rain is enroute!  We are expecting 40 to 80 mm of rain in the next couple of days.  Freezing levels will rise above mountain tops on Thursday.  This may worsen recent flooding and impact vulnerable landscapes and infrastructure.  Then a break and on the weekend, and more rain.  Let's hope the rain doesn't overwhelm the Fraser Valley where they are recovering.  

Yesterday I went to Langley Costco for senior shopping hours at 7:50 AM.  The lineup to get it was to the end of the building.  There was no lineup at the gas pumps, I think everyone filled up earlier.  You would have thought it was December 24th at 3 PM.  I must say, I never saw anyone hoarding or taking ridiculous amounts of dairy or toilet paper, they were just stocking up like I was.  I heard another shopper say the Abbotsford Costco is open which is great for the people in the valley.

I have not seen any grocery stores with empty shelves and all our gas stations have fuel.  You are limited to 30 litres of petrol and dairy is limited at some stores.
