Prince Edward Islanders are looking ahead to a wet and windy weekend.
Environment Canada issued a special weather statement Thursday morning regarding the approach of tropical storm Philippe, which is expected to make landfall overnight Saturday.
Philippe is moving northward at the same time a low-pressure system, also bringing unsettled weather, is coming from the west.
“As this front is going to be approaching, it looks like Saturday night into Sunday for the Island, it is going to mingle, or interact, with Philippe, who wasn’t invited for Thanksgiving, but he’s coming regardless,” said CBC meteorologist Tina Simpkin.
“But these remnants will interact with this trough that’s coming through, this front, and it will enhance both.”
