Good Tuesday morning!

We are off to a chilly start for much of the Island with temperatures in the lower half of the single digits for many areas. I suspect there is definitely some patchy frost, even though Badger was the only ‘official’ weather station to dip below freezing, and as of 5:30 AM NDT is reporting a temperature of -1º.

A good bit of Labrador is also waking up some chilly temps this morning, with areas in the west also holding between 0º and 5º to begin the day.

The rest of today will generally be quiet and sunny across most of the Province as a ridge of high pressure builds in. Some clouds will push into central, northeastern, and eastern Newfoundland coastal areas during the afternoon and evening, including the St. John’s area. And since the winds are northerly, there *could be* some drizzle in there. I’ll be watching the satellite and radar all day and will have updates as needed. It also looks like the southern coast of Labrador, north of the Straits, from Mary’s Harbour to Cartwright, will also see the clouds stubbornly hanging around today.

Tonight will again be on the chilly side as clear skies and light winds are expected across much of the Island. A Frost Advisory will again be in effect, but this time it’s for southern central and western parts of the Island and lows will be in the -2º to +2º range in low-lying areas.
