Planning to cook a turkey on Christmas Day? A backup plan might be in order.
The forecast is calling for temperatures into the low teens in Nova Scotia, but also high winds that could cause power outages late in the day. The later we get into the afternoon the higher the wind gusts are going to be, said CBC meteorologist Tina Simpkin.
