Tonight’s Outlook

A cold front will sweep across most of the Island tonight, but it will get hung up on the Avalon. The front will act as a focus mechanism for rain, and rain will develop on the easternmost Peninsula later this evening and overnight. Areas to the west, and I mean just to the west, will hardly see any rainfall tonight.

There are also some showers on the go over western areas of the Island this afternoon, which will also come to an end this evening.

Rain on the eastern side of the Big Land will move offshore this evening, while scattered showers take hold in the west.

Lows range from 8 to 12 in Labrador and the lower to middle teens on the Island.

Tuesday’s Outlook

The Avalon, and some adjacent areas, will see periods of rain as the cold front slowly meanders eastward. The rest of the Island will generally see partly to mostly cloudy skies. Highs will be in the upper teens to near 20°.

Labrador will see a quiet day, with scattered showers in the afternoon. Highs range from near 20° on the South Coast, to 12° north. Goose Bay will be near 20°, while western areas will be near 12°.

The Extended

Wednesday

Rain will linger on the Avalon into Wednesday morning before ending mid-morning. Rainfall amounts will be in the 25-50 mm range for the Avalon, with locally higher amounts possible. The rest of the Island will see scattered showers on Wednesday. Highs will be in the mid to upper teens under partly to mostly cloudy skies. Labrador will see scattered showers and highs in the lower to middle teens.

Thursday: Scattered showers across the Province under sun and cloud. Highs in the mid to upper teens.

Friday: Partly cloudy to mstly sunny with highs in the mid-teens to near 20.
