Many parts of Vancouver Island and the south B.C. coast remain under a regional wind advisory on Wednesday, Dec. 27, with winds of 90 km/h and gusting up to 120 km/h over exposed areas. The active storm cycle is expected to remain through Thursday night, according to Environment Canada.
But the Lower Mainland looks like it won't see winds quite as powerful.
On Wednesday evening, Metro Vancouver's inland areas may see winds of 30 km/h gusting up to 50 km/h. Closer to the water, winds of 50 km/h gusting up to 70 km/h are expected but a wind warning has not been issued.
V.I.A.'s Granville Island Weatherhood station shows cloudy skies with a high of 11 C and a low of 8 C with up to 10 mm of precipitation throughout the day. But the following day looks like it will see higher rainfall totals.
Thursday may see steady rain through the day, with amounts climbing to upwards of 15 mm. Temperatures are expected to stay steady through Friday but the rain is expected to ease up to finish up the week.
Other cities across Metro Vancouver, including Richmond City Centre and Burnaby West, are expected to see similar temperatures and wet weather through Thursday.
