Heavy snow piles up in central Newfoundland, tricky Thursday travel

NFLD snow risk Nov 2023

Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become difficult to navigate with the accumulating snow and winds, and drivers are being urged to plan ahead.

St. John’s will be spared by the snow as rainfall blankets the Avalon, with 20-30 mm forecast during the event.

No major systems are expected Friday through Monday, with just a round of showers and windy conditions ahead of a cold front Friday night and into Saturday, especially for Newfoundland.

Near seasonal conditions are expected for early next week, then rather chilly by the mid and late week mark and into next weekend, as well.

A couple systems are expected to track across or just south of the region next week. It is too early to have confidence in the storm track and impacts, but rain is likely near and south of the storm track and we will be watching the potential for significant snow totals to the north of the storm track.
