Air quality decent again in downtown St. John's after some rain; brief but significant spike to unhealthy levels occurred this a.m. w/ passage of Kingston smoke plume. Not much rain so far at source location, so potential exists for smoke to return. cyclone.unbc.ca/aqmap/#7/49.37… #nlwx

Some rainy #nlwx in central & eastern Newfoundland over the past 48 hours 🌧️ — but it appears the area that needed the most got the least. A decent soaking for parts of Central though.

Cool Saturday E & NE Newfoundland... Highs 11.6°C at St. John's #YYT and 11.1°C at Gander #YQX mark lowest maximums since May 27 for both. 🌡️ Coming to the end of this cool stretch though. After a chilly one tonight, it's back to seasonable, or above, beginning tomorrow. #nlwx
