Sun is the sentiment for the province as a whole on Thursday.
Winds shift south and southwest, bringing in a warmer, but moist air. This looks to potentially build some cloud over the south-facing communities with some opportunities for a brief light scattered rain. That clears into the late afternoon.

The wind is relatively light across the island, sub-10 km/h for some. However, a southwest wind does pick up to gusts for 30-40 km/h for the Great Northern Peninsula through the afternoon.
