Wind and some more wind

Synopsis....A 1038 mb high pressure centered near Cape Dorset along with a 984 mb low off the Canadian maritime coast is causing windy conditions in the Davis Strait from the north-south pressure gradient. This will remain the story over the next couple days as new low pressures will continue to move south of the area while a high pressure center will persist over Baffin Island.

Rest of today....Mostly cloudy, and cold, with north winds sustained around 30 knots everywhere.

Tuesday...Continued windy and cold conditions. Northelry winds may increase to sustained winds of 35 knots at times.

Outlook...No major low pressure systems are forecast to move into the Davis Strait area.
