A low pressure system approaching Nova Scotia from Cape Hatteras will rapidly deepen on Sunday as it tracks just off the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia. This will spread snow and very strong winds over New Brunswick and the Gulf of St Lawrence. This will also give blowing snow which will be worst along the gulf coast of the province.
The strong winds and low pressure will produce elevated water levels along the coast from Miramichi south, and waves will be building on Sunday as well. The worst threat for coastal flooding will be Sunday evening for most of the coast north of Moncton. Southeast of Moncton the threat will be both for the afternoon and evening, but with less wave activity and more storm surge.
