Severe thunderstorm watches are in effect for:

  • Grand Falls-Windsor & vicinity

  • Bonavista North

  • Gander & vicinity

  • Green Bay - White Bay

  • Terra Nova

  • Buchans & the interior

25 mm of rain per hour and wind gusts to 90 km/h possible is the main threats.


As storms moved through there was heavy rain, strong wind gusts, and multiple reports of hail.


Thunderstorms are expected to continue through this evening.


Remember when thunder roars, go indoors!
