Heavy rainfall on Thanksgiving weekend 1984 / John Thomas, satellite meteorologist, Stan Stobbe, supervising meteorologist.: En57-44/84-014E-PDF

"During the period from October 7th to the morning of October 9th, 1984, a fairly broad frontal system moved onto the B.C. Coast while the associated low pressure centre moved northweards to the south coast of Alaska and filled. The frontal system stalled over the south coast of B.C. giving measured rainfall amounts of from 50 to 200 mm during the two-day period ending the evening of October 8, 1984. Severe flooding resulted in the Lillooet River valley near Pemberton and along the upper Squamish River. A further 25 to 50 mm of rain on October 9 compounded flooding problems."
