Heavy rain soaked the Langley area overnight, flooding roads and forcing closures.
Environment Canada issued a rainfall warning for Metro Vancouver predicting total rainfall amounts of 75 to 120 mm.
"Localized flooding in low-lying areas is possible," the advisory said.
"If visibility is reduced while driving, turn on your lights and maintain a safe following distance. Rainfall warnings are issued when significant rainfall is expected."
In Langley City, the rain caused the Nicomekl River to overflow, blocking pathways.
