The number of outages had fallen considerably by sunset, but the New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island utilities say many will spend the night in the dark.Around 4 p.m. AT, Environment Canada issued warnings for wind and storm surges in P.E.I and eastern Nova Scotia. The federal agency is advising the public to stay away from shorelines as "higher than normal" water levels are expected and coastal flooding is a possibility.
