A messy winter storm is expected to move across much of New Brunswick.
Environment Canada said the system will arrive Sunday morning and continue into the night.
The special weather statement covers Fredericton and Southern York County, Oromocto and Sunbury County, Grand Lake and Queens County, Sussex and Kings County, Saint John and Charlotte County, Grand Manan and Coastal Charlotte County, Kent County, Moncton and Southeast New Brunswick, and Kouchibouguac National Park.
The agency said northern regions could see 15 to 25 centimetres of snow, but southern areas are expected to receive 5 to 15 centimetres.
Environment Canada explained the snow may shift to ice pellets, freezing rain or rain before the system tapers off Sunday night.
The mix of snow and freezing precipitation may create slippery travel and walking conditions.
The agency is encouraging people to plan and be prepared for changing conditions throughout the day.
NB Power said it is monitoring the incoming weather system and preparing crews across the province in case outages occur.
We are closely monitoring this weekend's approaching weather, from Sunday into Monday, and its potential impact on New Brunswick, and we are ready to respond across the province in the event of outages. While we're preparing, there are also things you can do to get ready. 1/3

The utility said residents can also take steps to get ready at home, such as ensuring they have basic emergency supplies.
