FOR THE HIGH ARCTIC AREA

UPDATED BY ENVIRONMENT CANADA

AT 8:23 P.M. MDT FRIDAY 24 OCTOBER 2025.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

BLIZZARD WARNING FOR:

      RESOLUTE.



---------------------------------------------------------------------

==DISCUSSION==



BLIZZARD CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TONIGHT AND SATURDAY. 



STARTING LATE THIS EVENING, A COMBINATION OF STRONG SOUTHEASTERLY 

WINDS AND FALLING SNOW WILL REDUCE VISIBILITY TO NEAR ZERO IN 

BLOWING SNOW. 



THE STRONGEST WINDS WILL DEVELOP BEFORE MORNING AND CONTINUE THROUGH 

MUCH OF SATURDAY, WITH SUSTAINED WINDS UP TO 70 KM/H. 



CONDITIONS WILL IMPROVE SATURDAY EVENING AS THE WINDS EASE. 



DAMAGE TO BUILDINGS, SUCH AS TO TO ROOF SHINGLES AND WINDOWS MAY 

OCCUR. 



LOOSE OBJECTS MAY BE TOSSED BY THE WIND AND CAUSE INJURY OR DAMAGE.



TRAVEL IS EXPECTED TO BE HAZARDOUS DUE TO REDUCED VISIBILITY. IF YOU 

BECOME STRANDED IN A VEHICLE DO NOT LEAVE. THE VEHICLE OFFERS A FORM 

OF PROTECTION FROM THE COLD. A SINGLE PERSON WALKING THROUGH THE 

SNOW IS HARDER TO FIND THAN A STRANDED CAR OR TRUCK. IF YOU MUST 

TRAVEL, KEEP OTHERS INFORMED OF YOUR SCHEDULE AND DESTINATION AND 

CARRY AN EMERGENCY KIT AND MOBILE PHONE. 



PLEASE CONTINUE TO MONITOR ALERTS AND FORECASTS ISSUED BY 

ENVIRONMENT CANADA. TO REPORT SEVERE WEATHER, SEND AN EMAIL TO 

NUSTORM(AT)EC.GC.CA, CALL 1-800-239-0484 OR POST REPORTS ON X USING 

(HASH)NUSTORM.
