3:52 PM ADT Friday 26 October 2018
Freezing rain warning in effect for:

Woodstock and Carleton County
Freezing rain is expected or occurring.

A mix of snow, freezing rain and rain expected for this weekend.

A low pressure system approaching from the southwest will bring messy weather to New Brunswick beginning Saturday night. Precipitation is expected to start off as a mix of snow and ice pellets in central New Brunswick late Saturday evening and then transition to freezing rain after midnight. Freezing rain could persist for several hours until Sunday morning before temperatures rise above the freezing mark.

Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become icy and slippery.

Freezing rain warnings are issued when rain falling in sub-zero temperatures creates ice build-up and icy surfaces.

10:13 AM ADT Friday 26 October 2018
Special weather statement in effect for:

Fredericton and Southern York County
A mix of wintry weather and rain expected for this weekend.

A low pressure system approaching from the southwest will bring messy weather to New Brunswick over the second half of the weekend. A mix of snow, freezing rain, and rain will spread northward across the province Saturday evening, then change to rain during the day on Sunday as temperatures rise well above freezing. Parts of New Brunswick may see a few hours of freezing rain Saturday night before the changeover to rain. Although it is too early to forecast specific locations and amounts, it is possible that southern regions may receive total rainfall amounts of 50 mm or more before the rain tapers to showers by Sunday night. It is therefore possible that freezing rain and rainfall warnings will be issued closer to the onset of the event. Additionally elevated water levels at high tide are possible in the Bay of Chaleur Sunday evening.

At this time, there is considerable uncertainty in the forecast track and intensity of this system. Meteorologists at Environment and Climate Change Canada will monitor its development and provide further information as it becomes available.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to NBstorm@canada.ca or tweet reports using #NBStorm.

10:13 AM ADT Friday 26 October 2018
Special weather statement in effect for:

Halifax Metro and Halifax County West
Significant rain expected for this weekend.

A low pressure system approaching from the southwest will bring significant rain and brisk easterly winds beginning in the southwest Saturday afternoon and spread northeastwards across the remainder of the province Saturday night. Although it is too early to forecast specific locations and amounts, it is possible that some regions will receive total amounts of 50 mm or more before the rain tapers to showers Sunday night. It is therefore possible that rainfall warnings will be issued closer to the onset of the event.

Although wind gusts are not presently expected to reach warning level of 90 km/h, gusts are likely to approach 80 km/h in some areas. Conditions may be favourable for the development of warning-level Les Suetes winds along the northern coast of Cape Breton on Sunday.

At this time, there is considerable uncertainty in the forecast track and intensity of this system. Meteorologists at Environment and Climate Change Canada will monitor its development and provide further information as it becomes available.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to NSstorm@canada.ca or tweet reports using #NSStorm.

Special weather statement in effect for:

Queens County P.E.I.
Significant rain expected for this weekend.

A low pressure system approaching from the southwest will bring significant rain to Prince Edward Island beginning Saturday evening and become heavy at times overnight. Although it is too early to forecast specific locations and amounts, it is possible that some parts of the island will receive total accumulations of 50 mm or more before the rain tapers to showers Sunday night. It is therefore possible that rainfall warnings will be issued closer to the onset of the event.

At this time, there is considerable uncertainty in the forecast track and intensity of this system. Meteorologists at Environment and Climate Change Canada will monitor its development and provide further information as it becomes available.
