First winter weather blast headed to Southern N.B.

Snow is on the way for southeastern New Brunswick.

Environment Canada says up to 15 centimetres could fall in the Moncton area, with strong winds beginning Tuesday afternoon and continuing into Wednesday morning.

Southern New Brunswick and southeastern New Brunswick remain under a special weather statement.

Environment Canada Meteorologist Jill Maepea says 10 to 15 centimetres of snow is possible, “Right now we’re really looking at anywhere between Saint John and Moncton as areas to see the most snow.”

The heaviest snow is expected overnight, with less snow expected along the Fundy coast, where it will fall mostly as rain.

“Definitely the first significant snowfall for the southern areas of the province,” Maepea adds.

Affected areas include Moncton and Southeastern New Brunswick, Sussex, the Kennebecasis Valley, Saint John County, and Fundy National Park.

Today’s call for snow has Codiac Transpo keeping an eye on the roads.

It will be watching the weather and road conditions, and decisions will be made as to whether services should continue.

The bus service says throughout the winter season, riders will be given two hours’ notice if ever they need to pull the buses off the roads.

You can monitor on the Codiac Transpo app and on their website.
