Now might be a good time to dig your shovel and snowbrush out of storage, if you have not already.
Environment Canada says an early-season snowfall is expected for part of New Brunswick later this week.
It has issued a special weather statement for all southern and central New Brunswick, including:
- Fredericton and Southern York County
- Fundy National Park
- Grand Lake and Queens County
- Kent County
- Kouchibouguac National Park
- Miramichi and area
- Moncton and southeast New Brunswick
- Oromocto and Sunbury County
- Saint John and County
- Stanley – Doaktown – Blackville Area
- St. Stephen and Northern Charlotte County
- Sussex – Kennebecasis Valley and Kings County
- Woodstock and Carleton County
Forecasters say up to 15 centimetres of snow could fall between late Thursday night and Friday morning.
“Travel could become difficult with accumulating snow during the overnight hours,” the weather agency warned in its statement.
“If you must travel, be prepared for delays and allow extra time to reach your destination.”
Precipitation may begin as rain in some areas but will transition to snow as temperatures drop below freezing on Thursday night.
