A powerful winter storm hammered parts of the seawall in Stanley Park Thursday morning.
Massive waves and strong winds descended on Metro Vancouver earlier this morning as the region prepares itself for incoming arctic air. Environment Canada issued a warning the day before, stating that the region will see “elevated ocean water levels accompanied by significant waves”.
The Vancouver Park Board warned of possible closures along the seawall.
“As a safety precaution, due to high winds and a king tide, sections of the Stanley Park seawall may temporarily close.”
“Please respect all closures, give staff plenty of space to work and stay away from the edges of the seawall, particularly if accompanying children or pets.”
