Some rainy #nlwx in central & eastern Newfoundland over the past 48 hours 🌧️ — but it appears the area that needed the most got the least. A decent soaking for parts of Central though.

Can't beat a little bit of glitter and blue sky.
@abrauweiler.bsky.social Freezing rain this past weekend left Cartwright sparkling!

Wow!
Last year, St. John's #YYT didn't see a temperature as warm as today's 17.6°C until May 21.

Two months earlier this year. #nlwx

ECCC upgraded to a winter storm warning for the northeast Avalon.

The snow is just starting for the southern Avalon and will continue to spread north over the next few hours.

Our first blizzard warning of the year is in place for the Avalon.

20-35+ cm for the Avalon tapering to flurries Monday AM and early afternoon. 10-20 cm for the rest of eastern Newfoundland.

NE then NW gusts between 80-110 km/h after midnight through noon. The strongest winds between 3-9 am.

No surprise but January was well above normal across the province which led to more rain and less snow right across the board.

Happy Valley-Goose Bay tied for their warmest Jan on record and most were within their top 5, except PAB and Stephenville.

Almost the end of January, but finally the first 'decent' snowfall of the season for central and eastern parts of the island. Snow-to-liquid ratios of 15 to 20+ to 1 certainly helped to give the accumulations an extra boost in Central! #nlwx

Picked up another 5.5 cm since 7am, bringing #GanderWest snowfall to 23 cm thru 1:30 pm. Water equivalent 14.8 mm.

Wow.
Today, Jan 8, marks the 5th consecutive day where the snow depth is just a trace at Goose Bay #YYR.

Daily snow depth records at YYR go back to 1955, but prior to 2025 there has never been a date in January with less than 2 cm of snow on the ground.
