A wind warning is in effect for all of P.E.I., and that could lead to travel troubles for people leaving or entering the province, as well as some early incidents of flying reindeer.
Environment Canada issued a wind warning for all of P.E.I. on Sunday, with wind gusts up to 100 km/h possible, and is cautioning Islanders to secure any loose objects outside.
That would include Christmas decorations.
While there is no rainfall warning for P.E.I., the amount coming down in the next 36 hours could come close to 45 millimetres, said CBC meteorologist Tina Simpkin, just short of the 50 millimetre criteria.
“Just because we’re not under a rainfall warning, don’t let your guard down. There’s still going to be some pockets of some very, very heavy rain,” said Simpkin.
“Wind is still the primary concern.”
Northumberland Ferries has cancelled all crossings for Monday. Confederation Bridge says restrictions could be put in place starting around noon, and could continue until early Tuesday morning. As of 6 a.m. there were no cancellations or delays at Charlottetown Airport.
