Gale's picking up in southeastern strait

Synopsis....Yet another low pressure near the southern tip of Greenland will increase winds once again in the strait for Friday. The strongest winds will be on the Greenland side, and south of the strait where winds will likely reach beyond gale force. Winds look to be calming down this weekend.

Tonight and Friday...Northerly winds increasing, especially in the eastern strait near Greenland. Weakest winds closest to Baffin Island. Winds will range from 15 knots in the western strait to over 40 knots south of the strait near the coast of Greenland. Winds will begin to decrease everywhere late in the day. Scattered light snow showers are possible, with temperatures near freezing.

Outlook....Looks like a calm weekend, with winds diminishing to near 10 knots!
