Thank you to PEI Minister of Agriculture Bloyce Thompson for the important discussion today. Every week the border is closed is a major loss for PEI potato farmers and their families. #cdnag #cdnpoli #peiag #peipotatoes

We want to thank our provincial government for its unwavering support. Having ⁦⁦⁦Dennis King⁩ ⁦⁦Bloyce Thompson⁩ and the Department of Agriculture in our corner has been nothing short of encouraging and inspiring.

Just wanted to thank Dennis King Bloyce Thompson and all staff for all there support and understanding how important the potato industry is to PEI. Merry Christmas. Our New Years wish is that federal government can get as concerned as provincial government are Marie-Claude Bibeau

Well, let's put April behind us, eh? Still a cool north flow today with mixed precip developing off Gulf (see pic). 50 model outlook: much warmer this week; showery on Thursday. Even warmer week after! May's forecast is looking pretty good....

Happy Mother’s Day ⁦Janet⁩!

If you live in Atlantic Canada, the trend regarding #FIONA is not your friend. Here are the GFS ensemble runs from 18Z Sept 15 to 12Z Sept 16. The ensemble mean (black line) is edging ever closer to Newfoundland. #NSwx #NLwx #NBwx #PEwx (1/2)

Pretty remarkable to see the filled-in forecast circle representing a fully tropical hurricane all the way up in western Newfoundland. #Fiona will be undergoing extratropical transition as it impacts Atlantic Canada, but may retain its warm core all the way to #NLwx!

North Carolina State University, Jean Ristaino's Lab, identified US 23 late blight strain infecting potato plants in the Alliston area, Ontario. Spore traps failed to catch spores of P. infestans before the disease developed in fields with Spornados installed nearby.

Well there you have it. All of a sudden the Atlantic Basin is very active. This was well forecast by most guidance as far back as April and here we are. It’s August 20 - the real hurricane season is here.

50 model outlook into October: predictions are once again trending toward a mostly fine stretch of autumn weather. The tropical moisture early next week may just clip SW areas briefly. Crossing my fingers this will work out... we deserve a break!

Exciting Hockey news from TourismPEI & the NHL today! We can’t wait to see the opportunities this partnership will bring to our Island. 🏝️🏒 #PEIProud
