Environment and Climate Change Canada meteorologists watching weather to warn residents of impactful storms
Environment Canada issued a special weather statement for much of the province Friday, advising people that colder-than-normal cold is on the way.
By 7 a.m. Saturday the windchill is expected to drop to -29 C and that will continue throughout most of the day with a high/low of -13/-20 C expected. Another windy cold day is coming Sunday with windchills in the mid—20s C and high/low of -10/-17 C. Environment Canada has the ability to issue public notices on its website – either a weather warning or a special weather statement – to alert people about abrupt changes or possibly dangerous conditions in the forecast. Although people sometimes don’t see the difference, it’s the severity of conditions that dictates if it’s a warning or a special weather statement the federal government agency puts out in its public alerts.
