Heavy rain in North Vancouver caused creeks in the Lynn Valley area to overflow resulting flooding and the evacuation of homes.
Both Fromme and Kilmer roads flooded late Monday night with residents in 17 homes being evacuated. District and Rescue Crews along with engineering crews were out in full force.
The District of North Vancouver is reporting that a blocked culvert or a small landslide up the creek may have caused it to overflow. Crews will be investigating on Tuesday.
Crews will continue with clean-up throughout the day. Argyle Secondary School will be closed due to damages it sustained from the rain and flooding.
A rainfall warning was issued for Metro Vancouver as well as areas in the Fraser Valley and Howe Sound on Monday with up to 50 millimetres of rain expected to fall.
