Active AlertsBonavista Peninsula

Hazardous winter conditions are possible.

A second round of snow is expected to begin Friday evening.

Locations: eastern Newfoundland.

Expected snowfall: more than 15 cm.

Potential wind gusts: northeasterly 70 to 90 km/h.

Time span: Friday evening until Saturday morning.

Remarks: Following a break during the day on Boxing Day, a second weather system is expected to bring another period of snow that could be heavy at times, before an eventual transition to rain as temperatures rise on Saturday. Total accumulations have potential to be significant over some locations - especially when added to that from the Christmas Day storm. Cleanup efforts could take longer than usual.

If you are planning travel, consider taking advantage of the break between storms, or wait until conditions improve.
