I've been saying this for months. Many Canadians say things like "they're just a few kooks," "Alberta can't separate because of the Home Rule Act," etc. but that is immaterial in the current circumstances. The Trump regime is using separatism as part of a larger propaganda machine.

A caller reported a car off the road on HWY 102 inbound just past the airport exit They also say this comes up on you quickly #HFXTraffic

Looks like a collision on the CIRC next to the Mall Big back-ups forming if you're headed to the MacKay #HFXTraffic

We've got reports of two collisions on HWY 118 one is inbound near exit 13W The other is closer to Waverly So this means collisions on both ends of HWY 118 #HFXTraffic

**** Via NSP For those travelling through Dartmouth this morning, a power pole was broken as a result of a motor vehile accident in the area of Wright and Raddall Avenues. Because of messy road conditions and current snowfall, our crews will be back to make the repairs when it’s safe to do so

Snow has tapered off over all but CB early this am. My total is now over 20cm; will share CoCoRaHS reports when they arrive. Just onshore flurries SW NS this aftn; with onshore snow heavier in NW wilds off Gulf. Brief sunny breaks elsewhere. Next storm will be late Sunday into Groundhog Day Monday!

Dalhousie’s Halifax and Truro campus, and the University of King’s College, will delay opening today, Monday January 27,2026, until12 PM due to weather and campus conditions.

❄️ SNOW DAY ❄️ From @hrce_ns — All schools in the Halifax Regional Centre for Education are closed today, Tuesday, January 27, 2026 due to poor road conditions, and to allow for cleanup following the winter storm. Visit www.hrce.ca. for more info.

7am: just measured 13cm new snow. The snow has eased off briefly here & to the SW;. but will reintensify again this aftn. Snow & blowing snow persisting thru tonight then tapering to flurries from west to east Tuesday. Still onshore snow & blowing snow however. I expect a total of 30cm my place.

Looks like two collisions on HWY 118 inbound One near fall river (not far from the merge with HWY 102) The other is closer to Dartmouth (just before exit 13 w to Burnside) We've got slowdowns at both spots - maybe take another route if you can #HFXTraffic

There's a collision on HWY 102 at exit 3 (the hammonds plains road exit) This is an extrication situation - so you'll want to avoid this area right now - and let emergency crews do their work #HFXTraffic

@mattbcbc.bsky.social @mattbrand roads on Cole Harbour are slick with wet snow, Baker Dr snow covered but Woodside is now rain.

Cold today; fine except for onshore snow in westerly breeze. A band of 5cm snow Thursday changes to or mixes with rain over the south. Onshore snow redevelops Friday as a cold strong westerly wind develops, turning very cold Friday night and staying cold thru the weekend with onshore snow risk.

The full speech plus interview is on CPAC on YouTube. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uStu...

Outlook: Cold air over NB moves south today: so clean up any of the wet snow before it turns to concrete. Patchy snow esply in onshore westerly winds. Snow changes to rain south on Thursday. Turns very cold on weekend! Onshore snow risk. Uncertain if snow hits us early next week; gradual warming.

Collision right outside our window on Chebucto Emergency vehicles are on scene. The overhead DIRECTIONAL ARROWS are OUT So be careful on Chebucto (and this could be an issue other places with power outages) #NSStorm #HFXTraffic

HWY 103 is closed at exit 15 bc of a collision. That's expected to be closed for 40 minutes (that's about 8:20-8:30 this morning) #NSStorm

This is utterly deranged.

From HRP: HWY 118 Outbound is CLOSED past exit 13 Several Large Trucks are blocking the road bc of the weather. The 118 - to the airport - is expected to be closed for an extended period #NSStorm #HFXTraffic
