The Metro Vancouver weather forecast includes some tempestuous conditions with possible power outages.
Starting on Monday, Nov. 6, the forecast includes a 99 per cent chance of rainfall with temperatures reaching a high of 11 C and not dipping below 8 C, according to V.I.A.'s Downtown Vancouver Centre Weatherhood station.
But there will also be some powerful winds picking up this evening and gaining strength overnight.
Environment Canada warns that winds up to 30 km may start gusting up to 50km "except gusting to 70 near the water before morning," according to a forecast update.
The national weather forecaster cautions that these gusting winds "may result in falling branches and local power outages," so locals should be on high alert.
Long-term Metro Vancouver weather forecast expected to be warmer and wetter
The strong winds are expected to die down by Tuesday afternoon. However, cooler temperatures are also expected to commence, with the daytime time high not reaching into the double-digits.
In fact, overnight lows will continue to decrease to the midway mark of the week, reaching their lowest point at 3 C, according to V.I.A.'s Downtown Centre Vancouver Weatherhood station.
Wednesday might be somewhat drier, with less than a 20 per cent chance of wet weather. "Hump Day" is expected to be the only dry day of the week, however, as there is over an 80 per cent chance of wet weather every day of the week headed into the weekend after that.
The long-term fall Metro Vancouver weather forecast includes above-average temperatures with wetter-than-average conditions, too.
