Service Notice – November 2025: The Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) CAP Service undergoes changes from time to time as the business of alerting evolves. For 2025, changes are expected to include... 1) ECCC's initiative to upgrade the presentation of alerts into Colour-Coded Weather Alerts is tentatively set for deployment November 26, 2025. Data changes will appear in CAP following this deployment, 2) the alert name ‘extreme cold warning’ will change to ‘cold warning’, 3) two Public zone names will change in Saskatchewan, 4) ECCC's initiative to introduce free-form polygons to represent the true threat area of a weather hazard continues, there will be changes coming to CAP and 5) other minor improvements and corrections. For more information on these changes: https://comm.collab.science.gc.ca/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/dd_info@comm.collab.science.gc.ca/ | Notification de service – novembre 2025: Le service du PAC d’Environnement et Changement climatique Canada (ECCC) subit périodiquement des changements à mesure que le système d’alerte évolue. Pour 2025, il y aura des changements incluant... 1) l'initiative d'ECCC visant à améliorer la présentation des alertes sous forme d'alertes météorologiques codées par couleur est provisoirement prévue pour un déploiement le 26 novembre 2025. Des changements aux données apparaîtront dans le PAC suite à ce déploiement, 2) le nom de l’alerte ‘avertissement de froid extrême’ changera pour ‘avertissement de froid’, 3) deux noms de zones publiques seront modifiés en Saskatchewan, 4) l’initiative d’ECCC visant à introduire des polygones libres pour représenter la véritable zone de menace d’un danger météorologique se poursuit. Des changements seront également apportés au PAC et 5) d’autres améliorations et corrections mineures.

Abnormal high tides combined with low pressure may produce minor/moderate coastal flooding. Elevated water levels accompanied by strong winds and waves are expected, exceeding highest astronomical tides. What: Risk of coastal flooding due to storm surge coinciding with high tides. When: This weekend, with the highest risk of coastal flooding on Sunday. Additional information: The South Coast is entering a period of high astronomical tides as Earth reaches perihelion (Earth's closest point to the Sun). Also, a low pressure system will cross the region this weekend. This falling atmospheric pressure will help further elevate coastal water levels beyond predicted tides, thus increasing the risk of coastal flooding. The exact track and timing of the low pressure centre remain uncertain at the moment. Wind strength will be contingent on the position of the low. Moderate winds and storm surge can lead to washed up debris and erosion along coastal areas. Minor to moderate coastal flooding is likely along exposed shorelines, especially in the low-lying areas. There is a risk of locally significant flooding especially where onshore winds compound on the highest tides. Roads and walkways may be difficult to navigate due to flooding and/or debris, such as driftwood and rocks. ### Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to BCstorm@ec.gc.ca or post reports on X using #BCStorm.
