Newfoundland Braces for Late-Season Snow and Ice Storm | #forecast

本站添加: 2026-05-05

[00:00:00]Snow and ice will impact travel across parts of Newfoundland as we see waves of moisture moving through the onshore flow really amping up the moisture hitting places like Gander and St. John's on the shoreline. Now, there's been a shift in the forecast so through Tuesday we've had the threat of rain, but more of the moisture has been staying offshore.

[00:00:18]That's good news, but tonight through to Wednesday we're certainly going to see the snow, the ice pellets, the freezing rain threat, which will be ongoing through Wednesday. It wanes slightly at times and then moves offshore, but Thursday still will introduce some moisture before this clears out. All in all, we're looking at up to 10, 15, maybe 20 cm on the high end, could push to 25 around Gander and into Twillingate. The ice pellet threat is around Bonavista, Clarenville as well.

[00:00:48]We'll see that filling in. Again, the worst of it late Tuesday into your Wednesday and then the freezing rain will accumulate for the Avalon, for Bonavista as well, which could cause issues for travel and possibly risk of power outages.
