After a third atmospheric river storm rolled through 91原创 on Monday and Tuesday, 91原创 residents woke up to find the rain had stopped Wednesday morning, leaving some local flooding and closed roads, but less destruction than the first storm of mid-November.

91原创 Township and City saw flooded parks and closed roads again as the third in a series of powerful rainstorms struck the West Coast, but the impacts were not as bad as those seen following the first storm in mid-November.

On Tuesday afternoon, 91原创 Township staff were sandbagging at two locations.

In South 91原创, around the High Point development, sandbags were being deployed to limit additional development caused by the floods washing out the boulevard and trails in the area.

Township crews were also sandbagging around the Yorkson Drainage Pump Station, off 102B Avenue west of 208th Street. A Township spokesperson said crews were there to limit flood water entering the building and damaging electrical components.

Free sand and sandbags are available at the Township Operations Centre, 24 hours a day, at 4700 224th Street, as long as supplies are available.
