Strong winds that may cause damage are expected or occurring.

A strong cold front will move through the province late this afternoon. Behind this cold front, strong northerly winds will move into the region. The strongest winds are expected between 9 PM and 6 AM, when wind gusts to 100 km/h are possible. Winds will diminish on Saturday morning.

Damage to buildings, such as to roof shingles and windows, may occur. Gusty winds can damage soft shelters, tents and awnings at outdoor events. High winds may toss loose objects or cause tree branches to break. Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions due to high winds.
