  • This is video after the 200mm of rain over the course of 48 hours - Rain Storm Abbotsford/Sumas Flats. “Whatcom” Road is the spelling. Usually there is no water in these areas. Farms, houses and roads. 100 years ago the area was a lake. At 4:40, the group in the boat were singing Giligan's Island theme song - take note of the guy with the captains hat. :)

    One thing is for sure, I'm really not surprised at all by how many boats I've been seeing in the footage I've seen. I mean we're known as "The City In The Country" for a reason, lots of country people out here and country people tend to own boats of all shapes and sizes. Just within my extended family we own 3 of the little aluminum fishing boats. Also people out here (at least that I know of) lots of them do river fishing, which can be more on the shallow side, so they're used to looking out for obstacles underwater.
