Just trying to drive to Pt Renfrew from #Sooke and road is covered/impassable at Jordan River. flotsam on road due to high tide, waves breaking over the road.
2022 carries on last year’s tradition of weird weather for VanIsle.
While most of the Island was hit with snow and icy conditions, Highway 14 at Jordan River became nearly impassable on the weekend as ultra-high tides (sometimes known as King Tides) covered the road in logs and other debris.
Islander Jay Palker posted a video on Facebook (above) showing the debris-covered highway.
A Twitter user posted that the debris made the road impassable at one point, cutting off the road connection between Sooke and Port Renfrew.
2022 is only days old. Stay safe out there.
