BC floods: Residents mop up from 3rd atmospheric river, as damage costs rise

Global News published this video item, entitled “BC floods: Residents mop up from 3rd atmospheric river, as damage costs rise” – below is their description.

They’re overwhelmed and underwater. Storm-battered British Columbians are dealing with the aftermath of a third atmospheric river.

As the back to back storms hit amid a flooding disaster, the city of Abbotsford, B.C. set an all-time weather record this November. It recorded 540 millimetres total – about one-third of the city’s average annual rainfall fell in November alone.

As Heather Yourex-West reports, relentless rain has made it impossible for residents to focus on recovery. Meanwhile, Robin Gill reports on how the province-wide repair bill is projected to balloon into the billions.
