We’re lucky to see some rain here in Victoria this weekend. I think it’s the first rain in a couple months. it’s scary to think this could be the last rain until September or something.

Lightly raining here in Metro Vancouver as well, but unfortunately the rain isn't supposed to last long here, either.

You can view a graph of the Metro Vancouver reservoir levels here http://www.metrovancouver.org/services/water/sources-supply/reservoir-levels/Pages/default.aspx
Thanks for this, it's a cool resource. That said, the metro area is certainly going to be okay, but the dryer inland areas are worrying.
Yeah I took a look around and can't find a similarly well made resource for other areas. Some of the rivers and dams on Vancouver Island have data but not so well presented.
