As the recovery process was just beginning to start, a parade of storms came through, bringing more rain to already flooded areas.
Stormy weather has already come, impacting many areas. More is on the way though, and it's looking like it might be one of the strongest yet.
People are asked to stay off the roads, only travelling when necessary, and to bring an emergency kit with them.
Here is everything you need to know about the storms hitting B.C. right now.
