P.E.I. special weather statement no longer in effect

A special weather statement issued by Environment Canada is no longer in effect but Islanders can still expect some snow on Thursday.

The morning hours between 9-11 a.m. are still expected to see the beginnings of flurries across the Island.

"We're expecting anywhere between 5-10 centimetres of snow today — but 10 is on the heavier side," said CBC meteorologist Tina Simpkin.

Winds will not be as strong as Wednesday — coming from the southeast, gusting at about 20 kilometres per hour in the morning and increasing to about 40 kilometres per hour by noon.

The Island will see a high of about -7 C with a wind chill of -22 C in the morning and tapering off to about -14 C in the afternoon.

Thursday evening will be partly cloudy with periods of snow ending late into the evening.
