You know we’re in for a wet week ahead when ICBC sends out tweets on what to do when your vehicle starts to hydroplane: “Don’t brake — decelerate and drive straight.”
As well, Environment Canada has issued the following BC Highway alerts:
-Sea to Sky - West Vancouver Upper Levels to Squamish
-Coquihalla Highway - Hope to Merritt

Eleven out of the next 14 days will be rainy in Richmond, according to The Weather Network forecast.
Besides the poor weather conditions ahead, “the peak (flu) time will be in the next few weeks,” said Tiffany Akins of the Vancouver Coastal Health Authority. She recommends public to get the flu shot.
