Share

Get ready, another wind warning has been issued for Greater Victoria.

Environment Canada says strong southeasterly winds are expected to develop over overnight and early Saturday morning.

Winds of 70 km/h gusting to 90 are possible near the immediate coast.

The winds will shift to the southwest 40 to 60 km/h near Juan de Fuca Strait later Saturday morning as the system passes southern Vancouver Island.

 

Be careful out there…

The weather agency is warning people to be wary of loose branches and objects flying around.

Road conditions could also be potentially risky, so be prepared to adjust your driving patterns as well.

The winds are expected to slow down this evening.
