British Columbia is having an election on Saturday, and it's too close to call.
The weather forecast for Vancouver, the largest city in BC, is for an atmospheric river and heavy rain. (The atmospheric river has already formed, and two highways are already affected.)
Oh, dear.
In case anybody's curious... No clear winner in B.C. election race between NDP, Conservatives They're elected or leading in 46 and 45 ridings, respectively, with the majority being 47. The Green party is leading in the two other ridings.
(For those of you south of the border, our Conservatives tend between Bush Sr and Trump, Saunders would probably be comfortable in the NDP, the Greens are the environmentalist party, and "riding" comes from a Norse word and is what you'd call a Congressional district.)
What this means for your election in a few weeks: Canada tends to get trends before the USA does, so don't count on the Left Coast remaining Left.
