My apologies for being a bit behind this week. Night shifts, followed immediately by a seminar definitely screws with your sleep schedule. I have updated today already, and I plan to do the rest of the week in the morning… mind you it’s a bit difficult to sleep right now with this crazy solar storm…

My apologies for the lack of updates. I attempted to do some updating the night after my night shifts but the site server was down at the time I was trying. Yesterday I was busy at a seminar for work all day, and now I have to work an unexpected day shift today, so I…

May the 4th be with you is what you’ll probably hear a few times today, depending on how nerdy your circle is. Either way, I think the most exciting part is the beginning of the end of the northeast flow (for most of us… sorry Avalon). There’s no significant weather expected any time soon, although…

Goodbye to April, Hello to May. We ended the month on a warm note, with a couple of stations recording their 2nd warmest April day on record. That’s for the whole month, for all years with data. This comes on the heels of two stations in Cartwright recording their all time max highs for April.…

Ugh… that was a bit of a painful update today. Lots of tangly, subtle precipitation changes with potential for significant or marginally significant weather. Although it seems like the gross northeast flow could continue all week, at least the threat significant precipitation seems to tick downward with each day. In the meantime, we do have…

Turns out I was a bit sleepier than I expected myself to be last night. As a result I’ve had to wait until this morning for making updating. Thankfully so far the middle range forecast is pretty benign, so that’s a bit of a win for us. We have some lingering freezing rain warnings, a…

Well not surprised after expecting lows that were much colder than normal for this time of year, but it looks like Wabush Airport set a new record low last night. You can read the specifics here. Otherwise we are expecting about 5 to 10 mm of freezing rain for GNP-East and southeastern Labrador. There are…

Yikes! I was checking to see how the Wind Warning that’s in effect for the GNP was doing, and Englee just reported a gust of 127 km/h. It’s not uncommon for Englee to get some enhanced winds in a west to southwesterly flow. It’s very similar to Wreckhouse, but it’s just a little harder to…

We are well into the latest cycle of breaking max temperatures almost every day. Another one set in Hopedale yesterday, particulars can be found here. While setting a new max temperature record for a day isn’t particularly noteworthy most of the time, the amount we’ve been setting them in the last 5 years has increased…

Looking like a messy week ahead of us, so stay tune for updates and possible alerts moving forward. Also keep in mind that anything beyond day 5 is particularly poorly agreed upon this week, so look for those scenarios to change a bit moving forward. Otherwise, I haven’t done an update on normal temperatures in…
