"A monumental task": BC braces for more storms as repairs continue | FULL

B.C. is bracing for more storms to hit the province while crews are still working on critical repairs in areas hit by the previous storm.

The first of three atmospheric rivers is expected to arrive overnight Wednesday and into Thursday.

Deputy Premier Mike Farnworth said, “having several destructive storms in a row is not normal.”

He said the ground is already saturated and the damage caused by wildfires and droughts has only made the situation more difficult in some areas.

“It’s a monumental task,” Farnworth added.

Crews are still working to repair and strengthen the dike on the Sumas Prairie where many people remain out of their homes and farms and thousands of animals have died.
