So far, there haven’t been any issues with BC Ferries or operations at YVR either.
The warning is for the North Shore, Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond and Delta. If you’re in the Fraser Valley, it shouldn’t be anything to worry about.
Listen for updates on weather conditions with NEWS 1130 meteorologist Russ Lacate.
Believe it or not… this is the calm before the storm. More on @BT_Vancouver this morning about the wind warning, which could see gusts of up to 90km/h throughout Metro Van. pic.twitter.com/wKE7VlGGy5
