Gale force winds and heavy thunderstorm activity over southwestern B.C. on Sunday, August 17, 1980 (forecast investigation #5) / Peter Haering, chief meteorologist.: En57-44/80-028E-PDF

"On Sunday, afternoon and evening, August 17, 1980, many parts of southwestern B.C. received considerable damage due to strong winds and rather severe thunderstorm activity. Power outages were quite general over a large part of Greater Vancouver. ... An examination of the meteorological events that led to these conditions revealed a number of interesting points both from a forecasting and operational point of view."
