Residents of Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, should prepare for a stretch of wet weather starting today, March 20, 2026, as light rain and weekend showers lead into heavier rainfall early next week.
The forecast from The Weather Network shows light rain beginning Friday, followed by off-and-on showers throughout the weekend. The wet weather is expected to pick up by Tuesday, March 24, 2026, with about 10 millimetres of rain and an 80 per cent chance of rainfall during the day.
This shift to cooler and wetter days follows a period of milder weather for the community. Drivers are encouraged to take extra care on the island’s winding and hilly roads, where rain can make it harder to see and increase the risk of sliding on wet pavement.
According to AccuWeather, the rural geography of the island makes road safety a priority during these weather changes. While there are no official alerts from Local Conditions at this time, the steady rain forecast for Tuesday may lead to slippery conditions for those travelling across the island.
