CBC Newfoundland & Labrador

Friday Evening Update

Hey Folks,

Quick update for you. I'm running short on time here... I'm up to my eyes getting the graphics ready for tonight's show.

This evening across the Northeast will be DIRTY! The meat and potatoes so to speak for the Northeast Coast. Overnight the moderate to heavy snowfall will turn to moderate to light snowfall slowly from East to Northwest... as this Low moves into the Labrador Sea.

Saturday will remain Snowy and Windy for a good chunk of Newfoundland... with slow improvements across the Avalon and up the Northeast Coast towards Terra Nova into the LATE DAY. Western Newfoundland will continue to see Snowfall into Saturday night.

Not much change in the totals by Sunday... just brought up the amount in the extreme Northeast.

4 DAY EVENT
Labrador will get into the Snow and Wind on Saturday with things really ramping up along the Coast on Saturday night and into Sunday. Winds again will be pounding to 100 km/h along the Coast and things will stay Stormy there right through early next week. Here's a look at how much Snow you folks could see by Tuesday night!!!

More details on Here & Now tonight.

Hey Ryan
Just wanted to let you know that here in Swift Current in the bottom of Placentia Bay we haven't gotten 5 CM of snow today. The roads are not even very snow covered?
What gives?

Hi Ryan
I'm here in Forteau in the Labrador straits. We've had a crapy winter so far(no snow) and I was hoping your forcast for us this weekend would be accurate for a change. Not so; we received about 2-3 cms in total so far and now it's turned pretty much to rain. Just wondering if you might have some insight into why everyone to the north south east and west of us are getting loads of snow while we're getting absolutely nothing. Thanks for listening.

It's Sunday Morning and out here in Harbour Grace we did not get much snow since Friday. We were expecting a lot worse.
