Campbell River, British Columbia Warnings, Watches and Advisories

Notice
Another wind storm tonight, less intense than the last one. When: Tonight. Where: East Vancouver Island - Campbell River to Nanoose Bay, Sunshine Coast - Saltery Bay to Powell River What: Winds southeast 70 km/h gusting to 90. Additional Information: Another fall storm is forecast to impact the south coast tonight. A low pressure system centred west of Vancouver Island will generate peak southeast winds of 70 km/h gusting to 90 through the northern Strait of Georgia tonight. Southeasterly winds will increase early this evening, with peak wind speeds expected tonight. Strong winds will ease below warning overnight and remain blustery on Saturday. While this low is not as intense as the major storm that affected the area on Tuesday and Wednesday, and peak wind speeds are forecast to be generally lower, the strong winds may still cause damage and disruptions, and slow down clean up efforts. ### 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. High winds may result in power outages and fallen tree branches. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to BCstorm@ec.gc.ca or tweet reports using #BCStorm.

Notice
Strong outflow winds. When: Tonight through Saturday. Where: Mainland valleys and inlets of the North and Central Coasts. Peak winds: Northeast outflow winds near 90 km/h. Remarks: A ridge of high pressure building over interior BC combined with a low pressure system approaching the BC coast will generate very strong outflow winds through mainland valleys and inlets. Strong northeasterly outflow winds ranging from 70 to 90 km/h are expected to persist through tonight and Saturday. As the low weakens and moves offshore, outflow winds will gradually ease below wind warning criteria Saturday overnight. ### High winds may toss loose objects or cause tree branches to break. Utility outages may occur. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to BCstorm@ec.gc.ca or tweet reports using #BCStorm.
