Strong winds and heavy rain battered the B.C. coast overnight, toppling trees and power lines and leaving 80,000 people in the dark at one point.

Environment Canada has since called off a wind and rain warning for the region, but the damage was evident Wednesday morning.

Gusts nearing 100 kilometres an hour wreaked havoc, even sending a tree crashing into the bedroom window of a home in Surrey at around 11 p.m.

The family initially reported being trapped by the tree, but got out on their own.

In Burnaby, a tree crashed down on top of a vehicle, and there were reports the flash of exploding transformers could be seen across Metro Vancouver.

BC Hydro reported power losses for nearly 80,000 people throughout the Lower Mainland, Sunshine Coast and Vancouver Island at the height of the storm.

As of Wednesday morning, just over 30,000 people remained in the dark.

No serious injuries were reported.

Environment Canada said a Pacific frontal system dumped between 60 to 100 millimetres of rain by Wednesday morning.
