My power just returned... the heaviest wet snow correlates with the highest density of outages. Drier fluffy snow over Chignecto, PEI and NB... zero outages.

Snow continues across most of Nova Scotia, southern New Brunswick and P.E.I. Radar indicates the snow mixing with ice pellets along parts the Atlantic Coast. Snow is also falling across much of Newfoundland but mixing to ice/rain has started on the Avalon and Burin. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx #HaliSky

Developing nor'easter moves through the region tonight and Monday. 15 to 25 cm of snow for much of Nova Scotia, eastern P.E.I., and southwest-central N.L. Less in N.B., with mixing eastern N.L. + Eastern Shore of N.S. Full update: www.facebook.com/share/p/17wV... #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx #halisky

Get those snow shovels ready! Expect delays, cancellations and travel impacts for Monday morning, with the clean up continuing throughout Monday afternoon. Snow will be wet and dense, making it heavier to clear and increasing the possibility of some power outages www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... #halisky

Fine start then patchy rain-snow mix this aftn turns to snow at times heavy tonight. Heaviest over NS and E PEI (15-30cm). Snow & gusty winds gradually ease off Monday morning. Sticky snow hard to shovel (but good for building a snowman). Expect cancellations & delays.

Fine start then patchy wet snow or rain develops this aftn; heavier this eve then moving out before Sunday dawn. Could be 10cm S NB at highest. Another system moves in Sunday evening; mixed precip changes to snow: heaviest ATL coast NS into CB. NS wakes up Monday to 10-20cm+ wet snow.

2 systems to watch as we move into this weekend. The first arrives late Saturday with light snow for southern NB, northern NS & PEI. The 2nd arrives late Sunday with the possibility of significant snowfall for NS. Your forecast: NS: www.youtube.com/watch?v=li0m... NB: www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

Rain at times heavy is changing to patchy light snow (icy) as cold strong northwest winds develop today: this am in NB-W NS, this aftn in HFX & PEI, then late aftn Cape Breton. Fine Saturday then snow north/rain south moves thru Sat night. Another system looks like mostly snow Sunday night. Messy.

Wet, windy and warm today & tonight (snow NW NB). 40mm parts NS & PEI. Turning cold Friday as winds shift to strong NW anf rain changes to snow or flurries. Roads become slippery. N NB best chance 15cm total. Quick shot of rain/wet snow Sat night. Heavier shot of snow Sunday night.

Mild. A few showers/drizzle (flurries north) become spotty today. Rain develops tonight (snow NW) tapers to showers or drizzle Thursday aftn. 15cm snow NW NB. Highest rainfalls where gusty south winds blow onshore (20-40mm). Showers turn to flurries (onshore snow) in colder gusty NW winds Friday.

Temperatures continue to trend warmer in the region on Wednesday. A warm front will bring a chance of scattered showers and drizzle, except some snow in northern New Brunswick and a mix of showers and wet snow for NL. More widespread rain on Thursday. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx #halisky

Careful for icy surfaces: flurries in a strong cold northwest wind triggering onshore snow off Fundy & Gulf. Winds shift to SW and ease off Tuesday. Milder with a brief band of wet snow crossing NS. Even milder Wed-Thurs with passing rain. Rain changes to snow Friday as strong NW winds return.

Careful driving. Waking up to a light wintry mix of snow or ice coating roads early this am. Yarmouth already rain at 7am; Halifax changes mid morning; not til late aftn Sydney. Variable snowfalls; heaviest E NB-W PEI (10-15cm), with bands of heavy onshore snow persisting in strong NW winds Monday.

Had 7mm in my gauge from last night's rain. A few showers (flurries Highlands) linger this am east. Messy Sunday: snow spreads across region changing to freezing rain in the south then rain NS (see pics). 10-20cm N NB; 25mm rain Atlantic coast NS. Colder & windy Monday & flurries (heavier onshore).

Fine today (sunny breaks). 2-3C this aftn. Rain develops tonight with wintry mix N NB. Rain tapers to showers/drizzle Saturday am then partial clearing. Messy travel on Sunday: snow spreading across the region changing to icy mix south then to rain later in the day in NS. Most snow (~10cm) N NB.

Fair for much of the region on Friday with temperatures near and above average. Another system rolls into the Maritimes Friday night with rain for most, mixing in northern New Brunswick. The system will bring a rain-snow mix to Newfoundland Saturday. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

Wed rain heaviest in Halifax County (50mm YHZ). Risk of icy roads in light snow or freezing drizzle early this am, highest risk E NS & PEI. Partial clearing this aftn. Fine start Friday. Rain (mix N NB) developing Fri night tapering to showers/drizzle Sat am. Snow N, rain/freezing rain S Sunday.

9pm update: this heavy band has dropped 25-35mm over Halifax and Lunenburg counties the last few hours. Tantallon is the first area to reach 50mm. Note that even in Halifax there is now some snow mixed. Wet snow on roads a risk over higher terrain. Take care

Watch for icy surfaces. Drizzle or flurries east with rain or snow west early this am (see pics). The rain moves along the ATL coast today (15-25mm). Further north (high ground, NB & PEI) turns to snow/icy mix. The snow/mixed precip over PEI & E NS early Thursday moves off by lunch. Damp weekend.

Patchy snow over SW areas becomes mixed or change to rain later today. Cold surfaces turning icy. Rain develops over southern areas Wednesday (see pics) with snow over NB & W PEI. 10+cm by Wed night SE NB-W PEI and maybe Cob pass. Rain south/snow north Fri night & Sunday.

Another cold night ahead, but temperatures moderate through Tuesday and Wednesday as our next system rolls in. A rain event for much of the region with some mixing on the leading edges, except mostly snow/ice in northern NB and western NL. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx #halisky

Bundle up fin brisk & cold NW winds today; triggering onshore snow off Bay & Gulf. Heavy squalls possible, esply over Inverness & E PEI. Winds ease off & temps rise for some patchy rain & snow over SW areas Tuesday; then more organized rain south-snow north on Wednesday. More rain on weekend

The system far enough south today to have little effect on the Maritimes: it's cold out there, but winds have dropped and there is a fait amount of sun. The brisk NW flow returns tonight: onshore snow returns off of Fundy, Strait & Gulf. Just patchy snow Tues; then rain south, wintry mix north Wed.

A chilly west wind still generating onshore snow to parts of the NS off of Bay of Fundy & Minas Basin. Just flurries parts of CB & PEI. Otherwise sunny skies. A system well south NS Sunday: light winds & light snow. Maybe 5cm Atlantic coast Mainland NS. Back to cold NW winds & onshore snow Monday.

Thurs: 10cm wet snow parts of Valley. Moncton 18cm; SJ 24cm. I had mostly rain (~15mm). Today: snow lingers N NB. In NS-PEI, a gusty & cold west wind triggering onshore snow-flurries off the Bay & Gulf. Icy on untreated surfaces. Just lingering flurries Saturday. Patchy light snow Sunday in NS.

Patchy light snow this am becomes mixed with rain over the southern Maritimes this aftn then more organized snow north & rain south tonight. Turns colder Friday as snow persists NB and in onshore NW winds NS-PEI. Snow amounts quite variable: highest (20+cm) NE NB; lowest along ATL coast HRM-CBRM.

Happy New Year everyone hope you have a safe and wonderful 2026🎆

Quiet New Years Eve, but turning unsettled for New Years Day across the region. Incoming system will bring a mix of snow & rain on Thursday & Thursday night, with gusty winds ushering in colder temps thru Friday & into the weekend.

A narrow heavy band of snow between Yarmouth and the Minas shore is only partly seen on radar is covering parts of 101 and 104 with snow. Otherwise fine with light winds and only few flurries today & tonight. Patchy wet snow New Years Day becomes heavier & more widespread inland later in day & night

Rain in the east early this morning will move off. As winds shift colder air with bands of snow developing (see pic). Mostly fine New Years Eve with a few flurries; but onshore snow forecast for Annapolis Valley. A system spreads snow over southern/westerm Maritimes late New Years Day. Details TBD

6am: snow reaching SW edges of NS-NB. Snow & icy freezing rain moves east reaching Freddy before lunch then HFX after lunch. The icy weather moves over eastern Maritimes this eve, changing to rain tonight (pics). Rain ends Tues am then bands of snow develop in colder west winds. Modify travel plans!

Messy Monday as snow & freezing rain develop over the west in the am spreading eastward during the day. The wintry mix changes to rain Monday night. Turning colder/flurries Tuesday.

A chilly N wind persists today & Sunday. Onshore snow heaviest in the CB Highlands. Patchy freezing drizzle (icy surfaces) this am in Sydney. Snow develops Monday changing to icy mix then to rain over all but N NB Monday night. Rain moves off & a few flurries develop Tuesday. Light snow Wed night.

A system south of NL moves slowly north next few days keeping a brisk & chilly north to northwest flow over the Maritimes: generating 5-10cm total of flurries or periods of snow over N facing shores of Fundy, Strait & Gulf. Totals reach 20+cm over CB Highlands. Mix to rain to flurries Mon-Tues.

Merry Christmas! Sharing some maps to plan any holiday travel. Roads most likely to become snow covered in western half of Maritimes today. Then a mostly fine stretch; although, the CB highlands seem likely to have some snow (not heavy) everyday :-). A warm up then cool down Monday-Tuesday.

A bit of snow and flurries for everyone in Atlantic Canada on Christmas Day. A winter storm will take aim at much of Newfoundland, while a weak trough will bring flurries and light snow to the Maritimes, then onshore snow Thursday night. ❄️🎄#NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx #halisky
