Synopsis...A low pressure rapidly deepened over the southeast Davis Strait Sunday, and data on board the Knorr showed peak winds of over 50 knots with a minimum pressure of 985 mb. A weak low pressure is forecast to affect the area on Tuesday and Wednesday, but winds should remain relatively light. Forecast models currently show the possibility that a strong low pressure will affect the area on Thursday, which if it develops as predicted, would bring gale force winds.
Tuesday...Increasing clouds with scattered showers developing. Winds generally out of the south at less than 10 knots, except near the Hudson Strait where winds will be out of the west at around 30 knots. Warmer with highs near 4 deg C west, and 6 deg C east.
Wednesday...Mostly cloudy with scattered showers. Air temperatures around 3 deg C west, to 5 deg C east. Light winds except south near the Hudson Strait, with west winds again around 30 knots.
Outlook...Gale force winds are possible on Thursday. Uncertainty is pretty high still.
