Convective Outlook Valid for Today, Tonight and Tomorrow

Regional Impacts

Today: No thunderstorms forecast in Atlantic Canada.

Tonight: No thunderstorms.

Tomorrow: Non-severe thundershowers possible over extreme western Labrador.

Friday: Organized thunderstorms are forecast in the right quadrant of Erin over the southern-most marine regions.

Convective Discussion

Nil sig weather convection wise across the Atlantic domain until tomorrow late day. An advancing trof in central and northern Quebec may bring a lightning strike or 2 embedded in some shower activity late day tomorrow in parts of western Labrador. The bigger weather system to watch in next 3 days in Erin. Detailed hurricane forecast information can be found on weather.gc.ca/hurricane. Thunderstorms associated with this system will creep into the marine domain on Friday (into Saturday). They may push orange limits for rain and wind gusts near the southern border of our Canadian domain.

Convective Outlook Valid for Today, Tonight and Tomorrow

Regional Impacts

Today:

NL: Risk of isolated embedded thundershowers over the eastern Avalon Peninsula and east coast.

NB/NS/PEI/LAB: No thunderstorms forecast.

Tonight:

No thunderstorms forecast.

Tomorrow:

No thunderstorms forecast.

Convective Discussion

Isolated embedded thundershowers affected parts of the Avalon and the northeast and east coasts of Newfoundland overnight and this morning as an upper low continues to slowly move east into the northern Grand Banks today. Showers and drizzle are expected to continue for most of Newfoundland in a strong northerly flow today with an odd thunderstorm still possible today mainly east of the Avalon. Otherwise, a ridge of high pressure will remain over the Maritimes this week limiting potential for convection. A weak trough over central Quebec will bring some isolated showers to parts of northern Labrador tomorrow, but are not expected to produce any thunderstorms at this time.

Convective Outlook Valid for Today , Tonight and Tomorrow

Regional Impacts

Today: risk of an embedded thundershower over southeastern NL.

Tonight: risk of an embedded thundershower over eastern NL.

Tuesday: risk of an embedded thundershower over the Avalon Peninsula.

Convective Discussion

A developing upper low will be the only weather to talk about this week. There has been very little in the way of lightning up until now, but the instability does get better later today, through tonight and into early Tuesday. So, there should be some isolated elevated thundershowers as the upper low spins around eastern/southeastern NL. The PWATs are relatively low however, areas of convection will be very slow to move so locally heavy rainfall amounts are a concern with this feature.

Convective Outlook Valid for Today , Tonight and Tomorrow

Regional Impacts

Today: slight risk of an afternoon or evening thunderstorm across south/southwestern NB.

Tonight: slight risk of an embedded thundershower along the South Shore of NS.

Convective Discussion

A weakening cold front currently lying across northern NB will slide southeastward today and tonight giving just a slight risk of a thunderstorm across southern areas of the province. The better instability along with the low-level moisture will remain in southern New England but an isolated cell or 2 could advect into the southwest this afternoon giving locally gusty winds. Aside from that there will also be a slight risk of an elevated, embedded thundershower over southwestern NS tonight as the front passes through. There have been some isolated wind gusts close to 40 knots just in the wake of the front in northern ME so cannot rule out the same for some areas of northern NB today.

Convective Outlook Valid for Today , Tonight and Tomorrow

Regional Impacts

Today and tonight: nil.

Sunday: risk of an afternoon or evening thunderstorm across southern areas of NB.

Convective Discussion

A cold frontal trough will cross NB during the day Sunday but will be weakening quite a bit. So just the slightest risk of a thunderstorm across the south in the afternoon and evening.
