(Patrick Butler/Radio-Canada)Heavy snow is expected to continue across much of Newfoundland — and resume falling on the Avalon Peninsula — Thursday night. Meteorologist Rob Carroll told CBC Radio's St. John's Morning Show that areas between the Bonavista Peninsula and Gander will get the heaviest snow. The Gander weather station had recorded 20 centimetres as of 12:30 p.m. NT, with more expected. Parts of the Avalon Peninsula saw heavy snow throughout the morning, with about 15 centimetres accumulating, and possibly more over the northwestern Avalon. Newfoundland's first big snowfall of the season has caused closures and delayed openings for schools across the island.
