Major rainfall in the Greater Victoria region

Sooke Road at West Coast Tire has been re-opened this morning after being closed for several hours due to major flooding from rainfall. The conditions are impassable and dangerous, according to the Langford Fire Department and Sooke RCMP. “There’s not a lot we can do right now, except let nature run its course,” said Roger Plamondon, Sooke RCMP staff sergeant. “It’s still raining buckets out there.”
