Winds picking up again on Sunday

Synopsis...A low pressure will move well south of the Davis Strait, however pressure gradients will increase on Sunday possibly increasing the winds to gale strength in the southeast waters.

Sunday...Winds shifting to winds from the north and increasing, especially in the south. Winds will increase to 30-35 knots southeast of the Davis Strait near the Greenland coast by evening. Lowest winds will be in the Davis Strait near Baffin Island where the northerly winds will be increasing to about 20 knots. Seas will be roughest in the waters near Greenland towards Nuuk, with possible wave heights reaching 5 meters.

Monday...A low pressure will be moving south from Baffin Bay. This will help increase the chances of precipitation and maintain the winds. Strongest winds will be near the Greenland coast once again, south of the Davis Strait, where sustained winds may exceed gale strength.
