Stay away from rivers, shorelines, and trails near the North Shore Mountains. Conditions are dangerous: fast-moving water, flooding, and unstable banks pose life-threatening hazards. Stay safe and avoid these areas. https://metrovancouver.org/services/water/seymour-and-capilano-river-levels

Did you know the North Shore has an evacuation plan?

Most evacuations will not involve leaving the North Shore. Emergencies, like fire and flooding, are often localized, so evacuations are more likely to involve moving residents to safe areas within our community.
