Snowfall warning for
Fredericton and Southern York County continued
This is a warning that significant snowfall is expected tonight and Monday in these regions. Monitor weather conditions..Listen for updated statements.
A deepening low pressure centre near the Carolina coastline will intensify as it moves up along the east coast of the United States. The low will pass through Nova Scotia on Monday to lie over the Gulf of St Lawrence Monday night. Snow and local blowing snow associated with the storm will begin this evening over Southern New Brunswick..Spreading to northern regions overnight. On Monday snow will persist over much of New Brunswick. The most difficult travel conditions will occur over the northeastern parts of the province where a blizzard warning is posted because heavy snow and very strong northerly winds will cause near-zero visibilities in blowing snow. Total snowfall amounts for this event should be in the 20 to 30 cm range with much lower amounts expected over the northwest corner of the province.
The strong winds associated with the storm will give rough and pounding surf to most coast lines of the Maritimes on Monday. The winds will also generate a storm surge which will combine with large tides to give higher than normal water levels. This may require storm surge warnings for the gulf coast of New Brunswick.
The water levels will peak for the West Northumberland strait including Shediac late Monday afternoon and will peak in the evening for the gulf coast
