  "account": "Environment Canada warns of heightened wind, rain, and flood alerts across coastal British Columbia, specifically affecting Vancouver Island and the Sunshine Coast. Rain warnings are issued for western, inland, and northern Vancouver Island, with forecasts predicting between 80 to 150 mm of precipitation between Zeballos, Gold River, and Port Alice. Coastal flooding alerts are also active for portions of Metro Vancouver, Greater Victoria, and the Southern Gulf Islands. Damaging winds of up to 110 km/h are anticipated in coastal areas of west and north Vancouver Island, as well as Haida Gwaii. The District of Squamish advises residents to exercise caution as the community recuperates from the effects of flooded waterways, where a boat overturning during days of heavy rain and flooding resulted in three deaths. The village of Pemberton, located 90 kilometers north of Squamish, remains under an evacuation alert, although the Lil’wat First Nation has revoked evacuation orders for 18 properties. The village of Zeballos on Vancouver Island continues to experience an active evacuation order, while other areas have seen similar alerts remain in effect.",
