Branches and trees fell across B.C.'s coastal regions on Friday as rain soaked the coast, and B.C. Hydro is warning that more storm systems are on the way, the Vancouver Sun reported.

For people on the coast, the utility's warning suggests the disruption of Friday's rain, with its fallen trees, lost power and cancelled sailings, may not be a one-day event.
