The warning came as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was preparing to visit the flood\u002Ddamaged city of Abbotsford Friday.

“There is an increased risk of landslides that accompanies this weather prediction and power outages are possible from the winds that we’re expecting as well,” Fleming said Friday, adding anyone who doesn’t need to travel should plan to stay home.

Some highways may be closed in advance of harsh weather based on forecasting by Environment and Climate Change Canada, Fleming said. “I don’t think you can understand the difficulties that these farmers are facing without really speaking to them and so he will get a very good idea of the problems,” she said.

“With the continued deterioration of weather conditions in the region in the coming days, Trans Mountain is closely monitoring the situation to ensure our crews can continue to progress safely,” the statement said. “Our focus has shifted to complete repairs to ensure integrity of the line where it has been exposed and impacted by flooding and debris,” Trans Mountain said on its website.
