A very intense low pressure system is forecast to track south of Nova Scotia on Wednesday and will bring very strong winds and significant snowfall to much of New Brunswick. Over the southeastern half of the province, the strong winds and heavy snow will produce blizzard conditions.
Snow is forecast to begin Wednesday morning in Southern New Brunswick and spread northward during the day. The heaviest snow is expected in the south and east where snowfall amounts ranging from 15 to 40 centimetres are forecast. Strong northeasterly winds are forecast to develop ahead of the system on Wednesday and shift to strong northwesterlies as the system pulls away Wednesday night. The strong winds and snow will cause reduced visibility in blowing snow. Widespread whiteout conditions are expected beginning Wednesday afternoon over the southeastern half of the province.
Additionally, higher than normal water levels are forecast from Miramichi bay south to Cape Tormentine Wednesday afternoon or evening.

A low pressure system developing off the U.S. seaboard today is forecast to intensify rapidly as it tracks toward the Maritimes on Wednesday. The storm is expected to track near Sable Island Wednesday evening before moving on to Newfoundland on Thursday.
The snow is forecast to begin late Wednesday morning over the island and become heavy at times during the afternoon and evening before tapering off after midnight on Thursday. Northeast winds will steadily increase during the day and will gust up to 110 km/h Wednesday evening. These very strong winds combined with heavy snow will cause widespread whiteout conditions in blowing snow. In general about 30 to 40 centimetres of snow are expected across the island. However, some areas could locally see in excess of 50 centimetres, and given the extensive blowing and drifting snow there could be significant variability in snow amounts received within any forecast region.
Additionally higher than normal water levels are expected late Wednesday into Wednesday night mainly on the north shore. A storm surge warning may be required for some areas later Wednesday night or early Thursday morning as very strong northerly winds may continue to increase water levels during the night.

A low pressure system developing off the U.S. seaboard today is forecast to intensify rapidly as it tracks toward the Maritimes on Wednesday. The storm is expected to track near Sable Island Wednesday evening before moving on to Newfoundland on Thursday.
Snow is forecast to begin overnight in Southwestern Nova Scotia and spread to the remainder of the province Wednesday morning. The snow is expected to change to rain late in the day over the eastern half of the mainland and Cape Breton. Elsewhere the snow is expected to taper off Wednesday night. Strong northeast winds will develop during the day Wednesday and gusts up to 100 km/h are possible later Wednesday afternoon and evening. These very strong winds combined with heavy snow will cause widespread whiteout conditions in blowing snow. In general between 25 to 40 centimetres of snow can be expected with this system over most of Nova Scotia. However, some areas over Western and Northern Nova Scotia could locally see in excess of 50 cm, and given the extensive blowing and drifting snow there could be significant variability in snow amounts received within any forecast region.
Additionally on Wednesday afternoon and evening higher than normal water levels combined with rapidly rising wave activity may produce local flooding along much of the Atlantic coast of Mainland Nova Scotia during the high tide late Wednesday. These high water levels combined with the heavy pounding surf could give rise to some coastal erosion in some areas. In the Northumberland Strait water levels will also rise Wednesday evening but appear not to coincide with high tide.
Les Suetes winds gusting up to 160 km/h are expected to develop late Wednesday afternoon and diminish Wednesday evening.
