Another fall storm lands on the shores of Victoria. Winds are expected to peak in the evening and ease overnight on Friday (Nov. 22).

The final ferries between Greater Victoria and the Tsawwassen could set sail on Nov. 22 depending on the weather.

BC Ferries warned the Friday (Nov. 22) boats leaving at 7 and 9 p.m. between Tsawwassen and Swartz Bay in North Saanich could be benched B次元官网网址渢o ensure the safety of our customers and crewB次元官网网址 in the wake of a wind alert from Environment and Climate Change Canada.

Another fall storm is forecast to impact the B.C. south coast Friday evening, Environment Canada said in a special weather statement.

B次元官网网址淲hile 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, strong winds may still cause damage and disruptions, and slow down clean up efforts,B次元官网网址 the statement reads.

An area of low pressure off the west coast of Vancouver Island will generate strong southeasterly winds near coastal areas. Winds are expected to peak in the evening and ease overnight.

In a service notice posted at 3:40 p.m. on Nov. 22, BC Ferries said the 3 p.m. sailing from Tsawwassen (Vancouver) to Swartz Bay (Victoria) departed 35 minutes behind schedule due to adverse weather conditions and the crew taking extra time to load as many vehicles as possible given todayB次元官网网址檚 heavy volume of traffic.

BC Ferries expects the 5 p.m. departing Swartz Bay, the 7 p.m. departing Tsawwassen and the 9 p.m. departing Swartz Bay sailings to also be delayed.

The ferry service asks users to check for updates.
