Normally I do not make dramatic, hypothetical posts, but truly, this is astonishing. It’s a small low that races west over the pacific early next week, and seems to fuel off another low over the gulf of Alaska. It grows rapidly as it near BC, becoming ridiculously strong. According...

In other words, November. Or, in Newfoundland, a shortage of chips.

Hahaha good one. But I would like to emphasize this is not a normal storm, it’s extremely powerful. So far it doesn’t appear to hit the bc coast full on, although it’ll get close enough to flex its muscles over Vancouver island.

So, if one has to take a ferry from Victoria on Tuesday morning to Vancouver for a medical appointment, and return on Tuesday evening, do you recommend changing the appointment?

Absolutely yes, ferries won’t be sailing Tuesday PM, I’m confident on that.

Don’t worry, the wind will do it for you Just kidding - maybe. Worst hit locations will be coastal west VI, most of North VI, then pretty close 2nd is easy VI, and then southern VI.

The ICON is definitely one to watch out for as it takes a closer aim at VI.

#HudsonValley: flooding, wind damage likely tonight, may cause school delays/closings on Wednesday 😵‍💫 Before the rain, 1-3 inches of wet snow in Sullivan and western Ulster County between noon - 4:00 pm may cause early dismissals or lead to the cancellation of after-school activities. Elsewhere across the mid-Hudson Valley, any wet snow that falls this afternoon is unlikely to stick to paved surfaces. After 4:00 pm, the main precipitation type will be rain, and it’s expected to become heavy in the evening. The forecast for Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning is a tumultuous one: - Periods of heavy rain and maybe even a thunderstorm between 6:00 pm - 3:00 am, with rainfall amounts ranging from 2-4 inches (a month’s worth or more) - Rapid snow melt, especially when the temperature reaches the low-to-mid 50s after midnight - Strong-to-damaging wind gusts of 40-60 mph between 6:00 pm - 3:00 am Possible impacts include: - Ponding of water and flooding on streets, particularly in urban and low-lying areas - Flooding of rivers, creeks, and streams, some of which may rise out of their banks - Scattered-to-widespread power outages and downed tree branches; the combination of sodden grounds and strong winds may cause some trees to topple If you live in a flood prone location, expect flooding tonight — take extra steps to protect your property. Some school delays and/or closings will likely occur on Wednesday because of this storm, although it isn’t possible to pinpoint exactly which towns will experience the worst impacts. The December 18th storm is comparable to this storm, although the flooding and wind damage chance looks higher this time around. Although the worst of the weather will be over by daybreak Wednesday, strong wind gusts of 30-40 mph are expected on Wednesday afternoon, affecting cleanup efforts. Another significant rain and wind storm is likely on Friday night.

On Tuesday, December 23, 2025, at 11:38 AM, a potent Pacific storm resulting from the warming of the Pacific Ocean is beginning to emerge. It is currently located approximately 145 miles off the coast of Santa Cruz, California. This storm system is expected to strengthen, leading to the formation of a robust frontal boundary by 4 PM today, bringing rain and potential thunderstorms to the area as early as 11 PM tonight. Moreover, a significant amount of moisture is being transported from the Hawaiian Islands, Fiji, and the Marshall Islands, which could result in an additional 4.5 to 9 inches of rainfall starting from 11 PM tonight through Christmas Eve, exacerbating the risk of flooding. Particularly hazardous conditions are anticipated for Santa Barbara, Ventura County, Los Angeles County, Orange County, Riverside County, San Bernardino County, and San Diego County, with a high potential for flooding in areas affected by recent wildfires. Precautions should be taken, as damaging winds of up to 55 to 80 miles per hour gusts are forecasted to impact San Francisco by late Tuesday night at 8 PM, and Los Angeles by 5 AM to 10 AM on Christmas Eve. This moisture-laden system is expected to bring perceptible water values of 1.3 to 1.6 inches of water, potentially making it the wettest storm since December 2004 or even December 2010. It is crucial to be prepared for this significant weather event, with further updates expected as conditions deteriorate over the next 24 to 48 hours. #CAwx
