Wind warning issued for Howe Sound

November 26, 2019 1:21pm

Environment Canada has issued a wind warning for Howe Sound. The warning has also been issued for Greater Victoria and Southern Gulf Islands.

Strong winds that may cause damage are expected.

An arctic ridge of high pressure over the BC interior will intensify this evening, and strong north-easterly outflow winds up to 70 km/h gusting to 90 km /h will develop this evening for the Southern Gulf Islands and overnight for Howe Sound and Greater Victoria.

The strong winds will ease Wednesday night.

Damage to buildings, such as to roof shingles and windows, may occur. Loose objects may be tossed by the wind and cause injury or damage.

Wind warnings are issued when there is a significant risk of damaging winds.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to BCstorm@canada.ca or tweet reports using #BCStorm.
