A significant landslide near Okanagan Lake in British Columbia forced the closure of Westside Road, causing considerable travel disruptions and safety concerns. Mud, trees, and debris have led emergency services to advise residents and commuters to seek alternate routes while efforts to clear the blockage and assess damage are underway.
On March 13, Kelowna received 20.5 mm of precipitation and 11.8 mm on March 23.
KELOWNA, B.C. - A landslide has shut down Westside Road that runs along British Columbia's Okanagan Lake.
Some members of the Wilson's Landing Fire Department, who had been training earlier on Tuesday night, couldn't return to their homes north of the slide overnight.
