Special weather statement in effect for:

Halifax Metro and Halifax County West
Heavy rainfall and strong winds likely on Monday.

A low pressure system will track across the Maritimes on Monday spreading rain, at times heavy, across the province. This could lead to localised flooding in flood prone areas. Rainfall amounts in excess of 25 millimetres are possible and therefore rainfall warnings may be required for some regions. Southerly winds associated with this storm could possibly reach gusts of up to 90 km/h for some regions along the Atlantic coast on Monday.

Rainfall warning in effect for:

Fredericton and Southern York County
Rain, heavy at times is expected. The frozen ground has a reduced ability to absorb this rainfall.

A low pressure system near the Great Lakes region Sunday morning will move northeastward and cross New Brunswick Monday morning to lie in the Gulf of St. Lawrence Monday afternoon.

A significant rainfall event is forecast for these areas of New Brunswick Sunday night and Monday morning.

Periods of snow will begin Sunday morning and then change to rain later in the day. Light rain Sunday evening is expected to become heavy at times later Sunday night and then persist into Monday afternoon. Rainfall amounts of 20 to 30 millimetres are expected by dawn Monday morning. However, significantly more rainfall is expected later Monday morning before tapering to showers. In addition, very mild temperatures will cause rapid snowmelt.

Localized flooding in low-lying areas is possible.

Rainfall warnings are issued when significant rainfall is expected.
