Special weather statement in effect for:
- Halifax Metro and Halifax County West
Winter storm likely on Wednesday.
A very intense low pressure system is forecast to track near Nova Scotia on Wednesday. Very strong winds and significant snowfall are expected with this system.
The snow is forecast to begin Wednesday morning and be heavy at times. The snow is forecast to change to rain in the afternoon over the eastern half of the mainland and Cape Breton but then change back to snow Wednesday night. The snow is expected to taper off by Thursday morning. Strong winds are forecast to develop ahead of the system on Wednesday and persist as the system pulls away Thursday. The strong winds and snow will cause reduced visibility in blowing snow.
Although there is still considerable uncertainty with respect to exact snowfall amounts, computer models are consistently indicating significant accumulations. There is good potential for parts of the province to see total snowfall accumulations exceeding 25 centimetres with this system.
Additionally on Wednesday afternoon higher than normal water levels combined with rapidly rising wave activity may produce local flooding along much of the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia. In the Northumberland Strait higher than normal water levels are expected late Wednesday and for Pictou to Western Cape Breton Wednesday night.
The public is advised to monitor future forecasts and warnings. Warnings will likely be issued by Tuesday morning.
Please monitor the latest forecasts and warnings from Environment Canada at WWW.WEATHER.GC.CA.
