Here’s a further back view of the broken Coquihalla highway — you can see the place where it snapped off on the other side of this fast-moving river. #BCStorm#BCFloods#hopebcpic.twitter.com/YuI3ce7ub2
Abbotsford Mayor Henry Braun telling EVERYONE who is on evacuation order in the Sumas Prairies to get out now. Says pumps are not working properly in Sumas Lake, and if the water overflows from the Fraser into the flooding in the prairie it could be “catastrophic” @CityNewsVANpic.twitter.com/Wr2ZMhb2Ef
The family behind Hope Pizza Place. Parents Dewan and Rupinder Davesar along with their children run the business and have been helping feed hundreds of people stuck in the area due to the highway closures - and refused any payment. @CityNewsVAN#HopePizzaPlace#BCStormpic.twitter.com/bG7PXCxZC3
UPDATE: the owner of Hope Pizza Place is now going car to car and giving stranded passengers pizza. He’s refusing any payment and handing out pizzas to those stuck in their cars due to the power usage and highway closures. True sense of community #bcstorm@CityNewsVAN#HopeBChttps://t.co/yx3Ygb6uqf
Dozens of volunteers at Surrey's Dukh Nivaran Sahib Gurdwara cooked more than 3000 meals for those stranded in Hope. They're paying for private helicopters to deliver meals (roti, cooked carrots, fruit) Wed AM - and will try for more trips in the coming days @CityNewsVAN#BCStormpic.twitter.com/TpGjqDqIto
There’s not much along the stretch of highway between Agassiz and Hope, just a few houses and a Sq'ewá:lxw building. But when two landslides trapped 100 drivers and families on road Sunday, the First Nation opened its doors to strangers in need. #BCStormhttps://t.co/FSyG7lG0aBpic.twitter.com/pp1O7AIWAH
“There were no gas stations, grocery stores – nothing, but the Sq'ewá:lxw building had its lights on,” said Angel Claypool, a mother stranded in her car with her kids.
The First Nation brought Claypool's family inside, somewhere warm, dry and fed them breakfast. pic.twitter.com/yulumvuaP5
Well how about that? I just had another person CONFIRM there WAS an incident at Superstore in #Chilliwack this afternoon :( The shelves are almost bare: pic.twitter.com/SNm3KibuHq
Amarjit Dhadwar is a former truck driver himself, he says his friends called him telling him about being stuck - so he and volunteers jumped into action. "It's in our blood. The Punjabi and Sikh community is always ready to help others." @CityNewsVAN#HopeBCpic.twitter.com/4KepSJ0dt6
Abbotsford和Chilliwack EDS 正在使用 BC Wildfire 直升机支持希望镇。
Our EDS continues to serve evacuees, first responders and search & rescue staff and volunteers. Evacuees from Merritt are in Kamloops and Kelowna where we are providing food. Abbotsford & Chilliwack EDS are supporting the District of Hope using BC Wildfire helicopters. pic.twitter.com/I85YiPTyXz
Huge thanks to WSP Trooper Anthony Reese, who stood in the rain and mud for hours helping provide updates on the I5 closure, all while his house flooded. @wastatepatrolpic.twitter.com/4hkboeO5QF
Crews are hard at work to clear northbound I-5 in Bellingham. Remember to give space to emergency crews and please do NOT go around road closure signs. They are there for YOUR safety! pic.twitter.com/1AO8vUHYZg
Water came close to getting into the Barrowtown station but pumps are holding and good progress being made with the sandbags. Thanks to everyone who came out and continue to work tirelessly thru the night. #wegotthis#chilliwack#abbotsford#bcfloodpic.twitter.com/9joVa2kC5p

Saw incredible grit in Abbotsford today, as farmers and community members rallied to rescue dozens of cattle stranded by #bcflood with boats, dinghies, a jet ski and even a hover craft. Heard these scenes were playing out across the valley. Photographed for @reuterspictures: pic.twitter.com/B7azI3EeSs
Farmers and community members, some on a jet ski, helped rescue around 50 stranded cattle from a farm in Abbotsford, British Columbia, after heavy rains swept the western Canadian province, causing widespread flooding, landslides, and road closures #BritishColumbia#BCFloodpic.twitter.com/Sc8GW08zgF
CAN-TF1 spent the day searching the debris between #Highway7 and the river. Several submerged objects were confirmed to be empty, thanks to the incredible efforts of Agassiz Fire Dept on Sunday night. The Team is demobilizing & preparing to return to our Vancouver base tonight. pic.twitter.com/AfCiJYeEQ5
Beautiful sunrise on a frosty morning here in #Vancouver. Hopefully a dry day ahead continues to aid in the fight against the #BCFlood situation occurring just east of here. pic.twitter.com/9zBj8karFr
