‘When it rains it pours,” someone once said, and, of course, that was true on Monday. Heavy rains pelted our area with several inches in the foothills, and we were well on our way to the 2-inch mark in the city by 5 p.m. It was a stormy day in the neighborhood, to say the least.
Today will still see some rain — but on the lighter side. The rest of the week looks unsettled, although, as of this writing, Thanksgiving may be the best day this week, with little or maybe no rain.
As mentioned here the other day, traveling over the Cascades passes may be dicey if the snow level drops as forecast. We’re certainly not talking about a blizzard but snow could be sticking on the roadways at times, so factor that in.
Looking at the weather so far this month in Vancouver, we were running nearly an inch below average on the rainfall through Sunday. But with Monday’s heavy rain, we will be well above average for the month.
