  11. 'Prolonged' ⛈️🌊 #AtmosphericRiver forecast for coastal B.C. -- starting Sunday March 15th.

    ⛈️ heaviest rainfall expected Monday + Tuesday
    ☔ up to 30cm of rain forecast for western Vancouver Island
    ☔ up to 12cm of rain expected for #MetroVancouver

    A pretty significant tropical storm in Hawaii is "eventually going to make its way in this narrow band of, almost like a fire hose, hitting along the coast of B.C. for much of next week"

  13. Advocacy opportunity 📣 The Metro Vancouver region has a survey seeking input on their 2027 Budget and Five-Year Financial Plan.

    Metro Vancouver deals with things like wastewater, air quality, regional planning, providing below-market rental housing and more. (Note that they don’t just serve Vancouver - they serve many municipalities, which are listed in the survey.)

    Take the survey until March 27, and be sure to let them know that you care about:

    - wastewater testing / monitoring for communicable diseases
    - air quality improvements, including indoor air quality and aligning building codes with up-to-date air quality standards like ASHRAE 241!

    Take the survey: engage.zencity.io/metrovancouv
