Wow, the #EnvironmentCanada #Weather forecasts have gotten incredibly unreliable. They are no longer able to predict whether it will rain in the next hour.
https://weather.gc.ca/en/location/index.html?coords=49.245,-123.115
Yesterday, they predicted no rain today. It rained in the morning. At around 10 a.m., the hourly forecast indicated it would stop at 11 a.m. It's almost noon and it's still raning; now they are saying it will stop by 3 p.m.
They ruined their excellent radar UI a bunch of years ago, and were promptly delisted by Google a short while later; search terms like "weather radar vancouver" stopped pointing to them as the top result or even first page.

I wish, instead of messing around with the UI of the weather pages or colour coding alerts, #EnvironmentCanada would put their time and effort into actual new features ~ for example, #RainbowWarnings.
It seems we can predict these things.
The people should know if one is imminent.

Hrmph, just noticed Environment Canada has a beta up of their new weather site design. It's prettier but also less immediately informative. Plus it feels kind of cluttered. I also definitely like the current site's large weather icons on daily forecast block over the list view version on the beta. On the other hand having air quality right up front is good.

HEY CANADIANS
Looks like Canada is going to shut down over-the-air VHF Weatheradio in March? Here's deets:
If you want to let people know you don't like that here's where:

I know this doesn't affect that many people but they gave like no warning so I guess now's the time to say something if you care.

Protecting an ocean of ice and snow
With international waters no longer (mostly) lawless thanks to the High Seas Treaty, the world can now protect parts of the open ocean. This is especially critical for the still (mostly) frozen central Arctic Ocean as melting sea ice increases shipping and other industrial activities.

Almost 300 millimetres of rain on #VancouverIsland in three-day drenching
A number of communities in #BritishColumbia’s south coast have received more than 100 millimetres of rain in the atmospheric river event over the last three days, with one station reporting nearly 300 millimetres.
Jan. 13, 2026
VANCOUVER - "A number of communities in British Columbia’s south coast have received more than 100 millimetres of rain in the atmospheric river event over the last three days, with one station reporting nearly 300 millimetres.
#EnvironmentCanada says the #KennedyLake Forestry Station on Vancouver Island received a whopping 286 millimetres from Saturday to Monday.
"On the mainland, #PortMellon reported 204 millimetres.
"The weather agency says at least 20 weather stations in the region reported rain of more than 100 millimetres, including 168 millimetres in #Ucluelet.
"Other parts of Metro #Vancouver and the Lower Mainland were also drenched, with #Squamish reporting 132 millimetres.
"The #HeavyRain triggered several evacuation orders and alerts in areas including Chemainus Bridge and the Nanaimo Regional District on Vancouver Island, with one evacuation order for a single property near #ParksvilleBC.
"Much of B.C.‘s south coast and Vancouver Island remain under a flood watch, with a flood warning sill in effect for the Englishman River near Parksville.
"This report by The Canadian Press was first published Jan. 13, 2026."

Dear #environmentcanada
Please consider more specific locality reporting of air quality. The air quality at the airport in Richmond is not the same as in Kitsilano in Vancouver.
The sun, where I am located, is blocked out by smoke.
It is not a “2” in air quality. -

A #mining company has been #fined close to $221,000 for almost 30 instances of discharging waste into the #environment without authorization in southeastern #BritishColumbia.
On Aug. 8, the #BCMinistryOfEnvironment handed #TeckCoal Ltd. — now operating as #ElkValleyResources — two administrative #penalties based on #WasteDisposal issues over two years at its Elkview operations near #SparwoodBC.
This is not the first time the Elkview #coal mining operations have been penalized for #unauthorized waste disposals. Two years ago, Teck Coal received a penalty of close to $200,000 for several discharges in 2020.
Teck Coal has faced tens of millions of dollars in fines for #contaminating #waterways in B.C. over the years.
It is also now dealing with allegations of dumping harmful substances into waters frequented by fish in the province's southeastern region. #EnvironmentCanada laid five charges against the company in July, and they have not been tested in court.
A court hearing in that matter is scheduled for Oct. 10.
