Day 1 Convective Outlook for Atlantic Canada Valid August 8, 2019

Convective Discussion
A trough of low pressure and an associated upper jet will approach from the west today. Over the Maritimes embedded/non-surface based thundershowers are possible with the associated area of cloud and rain this afternoon and/or tonight.  Over western Labrador, surface based thundershowers are possible this afternoon and into the evening ahead of the approaching area of cloudiness. The energy is weak and the shear is minimal so just a risk is expected.

Regional Impacts
Maritimes…
Risk of thundershowers.

Newfoundland and Labrador…
Risk of thundershowers .
