Massive rainfall expected on the 12-year anniversary of the 2013 floods
Active weather across the west. Jodi Hughes has a look at the five-day forecast from the Sky Watch Weather Centre. Loading the player instance is taking more time than usual Loading the player instance is taking more time than usual On June 19 to 21, 2013, Calgary and area garnered international attention after a meteorological 'perfect storm' led to heavy rain, rapid snowmelt and significant flooding across the region. Coincidentally, on June 20 and 21 this year, there is evidence of a synoptic setup that could bring up to 95 millimetres of rain in Calgary. Massive rainfall expected on the 12-year anniversary of the 2013 floods June is typically the wettest month in Calgary with Environment and Climate Change Canada reporting the 30-year average of 112.7 millimetres of precipitation for June, compared to the second wettest month (July) with 65.7 millimetres of precipitation. On average, between 1991 and 2020, Calgary receives an annual total of 445.4 millimetres of precipitation. There is more model agreement today on high precipitation totals for the end this week, now that a number of low pressure systems in the north Pacific basin have started to merge. Massive rainfall expected on the 12-year anniversary of the 2013 floods This larger system in the west is expected to park along the southern B.C. coastline by Friday, and precipitation totals in southern Alberta will likely be enhanced by another merged complex from the north-central regions. More simply, moisture from the Pacific will funnel in to southern Alberta. Temperatures will also drop as colder air enters the northern edge of the Pacific low. Calgary could see between 75 to 95 millimetres of rain on Friday and Saturday, which depending on the distribution over those two days, might be a record-setting amount of rain. There are a number of differences today as compared to 2013, including better flood mitigation and snow melt, but even with that and a drier surface today, adding this much moisture over such a short period of time will likely create some challenges once a maximum saturation level has been reached. Massive rainfall expected on the 12-year anniversary of the 2013 floods Rain and thunderstorms are also possible on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday with Tuesday showing a similar set up to Monday as thunderstorms are likely to initiate off of the foothills in southern Alberta. Daytime highs will be slightly warmer than the seasonal average of 20 C on Tuesday through Thursday, with a quick drop from Thursday to Saturday, when the daytime high on Saturday is forecast to be closer to the average low of 8 C.

Alerts lifted as favourable weather helps B.C. wildfire fight
Rain in northern British Columbia and cooler weather in the south have brought some relief for residents living near wildfires. The remaining evacuation alerts related to the Pocket Knife Creek wildfire, northwest of Fort. St. John, were rescinded Monday, although the Peace River Regional District said new orders or alerts may be issued if the situation changes. The B.C. Wildfire Service said crews were still on the scene in Squamish to extinguish hot spots from the Dryden Creek fire, about 60 kilometres north of Vancouver, which was declared to be under control on Saturday. The progress in the firefight means evacuation alerts for most homes closest to the blaze have been lifted, while Mayor Armand Hurford said evacuation orders have been issued for two properties due to possible slope instability. "Wildfire crews have been sharing stories of big trees that are usually quite resilient to wildfire, but because of the rocky terrain they're only hanging on by their roots and the roots are being burnt out," Hurford said Monday. "Trees that would normally survive are falling, and the trees themselves and the debris that they've disturbed roll downhill towards the affected properties." Hurford said the B.C. Wildfire Service is now the lead on the blaze, taking over from Squamish Fire Rescue. Squamish Fire Rescue Chief Aaron Foote said the city has an "extremely busy fire department" even without a wildfire. "The calls don't stop outside of the wildfire, so our crews are busy running around all day and night," he said. Foote said more favourable conditions are forecast for this week, with lower temperatures and rain expected on Wednesday. He said there are about 57 wildfire fighters on the blaze, with four tree fallers and three helicopters that continue to bucket areas that are not accessible by those on the ground. B.C. Parks said Alice Lake Provincial Park will reopen on Tuesday after the wildfire forced the closure because the access road into the park was threatened. Kiskatinaw River fire remains out of control In northeastern B.C., the wildfire service said flames are no longer visible from the Kiskatinaw River fire after it was doused with more than 20 millimetres of rainfall over the weekend. But B.C. Wildfire Service fire behaviour analyst Neal McLoughlin said in a video posted Sunday that it "doesn't mean the fire isn't active underground," so crews remain on scene. The blaze — located southeast of Dawson Creek — is still rated as out of control, and is one of three wildfires of note in B.C. Wildfires of note are defined as fires that are highly visible or that pose a potential threat to public safety. "When we receive this amount of rain on a fire, it's going to take several days of hot, dry conditions before our fuel moisture conditions recover and allow the fire to become active on the surface again," McLoughlin said in the video. "So, this change in weather has really given us the upper hand for the next week to get ahead of fire suppression activities." He said the northeast has experienced several years of drought, and while the rain improves firefighting conditions, the landscape is still receptive to fire. "Twenty millimetres of rain is wonderful, but we know there's hot spots still within the fire perimeter, and we also know that there's deep underlying drought, and so within a week of drying conditions, we could see active fire on the surface again, and for that reason, we need to maintain active fire suppression over the weeks to come and wrap this fire."
