Regatta on hold due to wind conditions

The wind has picked up on Quidi Vidi Lake, prompting organizers to pause the races.

Currently at the lake, the wind is making the water choppy.

At the St. John's International Airport, the wind is gusting to 63 km/h.

The Regatta went ahead this morning. The decision was made under a mix of sun and cloud and light winds. As the day progressed, cloud cover increased, and the wind picked up.

The Regatta is expected to resume at 3:30 p.m.
