Maximum wind gusts: 100 to 120 km/h inland. Generally 120 to 130 km/h along the coast with locally higher gusts along exposed areas.

There continues to be a chance that areas of the eastern Avalon Peninsula could see a brief change over to rain on Friday afternoon.

There remains some uncertainty regarding the exact track and lowest pressure of this storm. Any variations in track and pressure will affect the above mentioned numbers. Please use this information as a general guide to prepare as the numbers may change before Thursday night.
