Active AlertsBurgeo - Ramea

Rain, heavy at times is expected. The frozen ground has a reduced ability to absorb this rainfall.

Locations: Connaigre and Burin Peninsulas, and Burgeo to Ramea.

Total rainfall:

-25 to 35 mm for Connaigre and Burin Peninsulas. Locally higher amounts are possible.
-20 to 25 mm for Burgeo to Ramea.

Time span: overnight tonight until Monday afternoon.

Remarks: The rain will be preceded by a period of snow, ice pellets, and freezing rain before temperatures rise and a changeover to rain occurs.

Subsequent rain and snowmelt could lead to water pooling on roads and localized flooding in low-lying areas. Temperatures are expected to then fall back below the freezing mark on Monday night, which may lead to roads and walkways becoming icy and slippery as standing water freezes.
