London Braces for Heavy Rain, Flooding

0:00It's April 4th, Vancouver news today starts now, AI powered and ready. Environment Canada just dropped a rainfall warning for the London area, predicting 20 to 40 millimeters of rain coming our way. Recent downpours have left the ground soaked, so a one-absorbed much more moisture, and a low-pressure system out of Colorado is steering the storm. Right at us. Expect the rain to kick in Saturday daytime, and stretch into the evening, with the worst hitting late night and possible thunderstorms cranking up. Even higher totals locally. That means water pooling on roads and low spots, sudden drops in visibility, and risks of wash-outs near rivers, creeks and culverts, folks are urged. To steer clear of those flood-prone zones, stay sharp out there, check the updates, and plan around this wet weekend to keep things smooth.
