Gale to Storm force

Storm around ‘eye’

  The low visible on satellite imagery

 

Synopsis: (link)

a 984 millibar low just off the west coast of the Charlottes will move northeastward across the northern charlottes and northern Hecate strait today and will move inland overnight

 

Over north coast waters gale to storm force winds will surround the low as it moves through.

 

 

12:30 PM image

Low located approximately North Nomad area (see below)

 

Where is the Low Now? (10 PM)

Looks like it passed the Rupert area around 2PM (North Hecate) and stalled going inland (blue arrow)

 

The second system moved rapidly and lost intensity between the two GOES West images

Note how seeming to ‘jack-knife’, with area north of red arrow ‘stationary’ etc
