1. Our next #nlwx system rolls in Friday AM, or early afternoon depending on location, bringing snow to eastern Newfoundland, with the Avalon seeing the highest amounts, along with gusty winds N to NE 60-80 km/h. However, some uncertainty with the track/placement, which determines snowfall amounts.

A quiet couple of days for most of NL (except snow squalls for western Nfld). The next system arrives Thursday evening, spreading across the island Thursday night into Friday AM. Snow for most, with possibly some mixing for the Avalon & Burin. Snowfall >10cm seems likely. #NLwx
