The Island likely won't be as affected by the wintry weather to the same extent as Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Nevertheless, five to 10 centimetres of snow is forecast by Environment Canada.

Most of the snow will fall through the day, ending in flurries Sunday evening.

Winds will be from the northwest20 km/h, Environment Canada says.
