Heavy precipitation is now just south of the island and should behind to make landfall shortly along the southern Avalon. #nlwx #nltraffic #nfld

Tomorrow is supposed to be the first day back to school, but that seems unlikely in the morning, at least on the Avalon Peninsula. Tomorrow morning, we will see 5 cm of snow, while the afternoon will be the opportunity to clean up. #nlwx

Snow is moving onshore across the Avalon. Conditions will worsen quickly inland with reduced visibility and snow-covered roads. Travel will deteriorate fast as more bands move in from the south. Slow down, increase following distance, and avoid unnecessary travel. #nlwx #nltraffic #nfld

A low forming off the US East Coast Saturday may track toward Atlantic Canada Sunday. Models disagree—ECMWF farther west, GFS closer to Avalon. Track will decide snow vs. mix/rain. Too early for amounts. Could shift out to sea or bring significant weather. Updates to come. #nlwx #nltraffic #nfld
