** Gale force winds are possible, especially south of the Davis Strait late Saturday and Sunday **
Synopsis...A low pressure with a forecast minimum sea level pressure of ~980 mb will be moving south of the Davis Strait late Saturday and Sunday. It will likely be close enough to cause gale force winds, especially toward the south and also in the western Davis Strait near the coast of Baffin Island.
Saturday...Partly cloudy with light and variable winds of generally less than 10 knots. Increasing clouds and winds late, with easterly winds of 30 knots developing by 00 UTC 9/21 (Sunday) south of the Davis Strait. Air temperatures around 1-3 deg C.
Sunday...Windy with rain, sleet, or snow showers possible. Winds becoming out of the north, possibly reaching gale strength. Sustained winds are expected to be around 30-35 knots with higher gusts in a line from the Davis Strait south. Significant wave heights may reach 4 meters south. Air temperatures ranging from 1 deg C west to 4 deg C east.
