Officials say gusts should calm down in the evening. With the strong wind comes potential damage to buildings, and loose objects could be tossed by the wind. 

Additionally, the strong gusts could make driving, especially in larger vehicles, difficult so motorists are advised to take caution behind the wheel. 

A full list of the impacted areas is available at the Environment Canada website.
