Metro Vancouver sees double usual rainfall for September

VANCOUVER (NEWS 1130) – If it’s felt wetter than normal in Vancouver over the last few weeks, it’s not your imagination. Metro Vancouver has already seen double the usual rainfall for September.

So far, we’ve had 113 millimetres, while the normal rainfall for September is 50.9.

On Sunday, many parts of Metro Vancouver absorbed a month’s worth of rain in one day – making it a very soggy last day of summer.

On Sept. 22, Vancouver International Airport saw 30.4 mm of rain, West Vancouver saw 65.5 mm of rain, and Pitt Meadows saw 21.77 mm of rain.

White Rock saw 22.4 mm, while Vancouver harbour saw 48 mm down by the water.
