A period of freezing rain is expected.

Locations: parts of eastern and northeastern Newfoundland.

Freezing rain duration: 8 to 12 hours.
Total freezing rain amounts: 5 to 15 mm.

Time span: Wednesday morning until Wednesday evening.

Remarks: The freezing rain will be preceded by a period of snow and ice pellets. The transition from ice pellets to freezing rain may be slower over the Gander and Bonavista North regions, with a quicker transition farther east. Freezing rain may later change to rain in some locations, especially near the coast, where temperatures are expected to become slightly milder.

Roads and walkways will likely become icy and slippery. Local utility outages are possible.

Freezing rain warnings are issued when rain falling in sub-zero temperatures creates ice build-up and icy surfaces.
