🌨️ What's Up New Brunswick WEATHER DESK REPORTS: 🌨️
Alright folks, put down your iced coffee and pick up your ice scraper — Mother Nature is once again choosing violence in the Maritimes.
Environment Canada has issued yellow weather warnings across parts of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, which is basically their way of saying: “We’re not panicking… but maybe don’t wear sneakers.”
🚨 Cape Breton Update:
Northern Inverness County is getting the full “Maritime Special.” Winds gusting up to 80 km/h, 5–10 cm of snow, and visibility so bad you might lose sight of your own vehicle. Communities from Mabou to Pleasant Bay are advised to hold onto their hats, their groceries, and possibly their dignity.
❄️ New Brunswick, It’s Our Turn:
Starting Monday, freezing rain will roll into Fredericton, Moncton, and most of southern NB (sorry Bay of Fundy, you’re spared… this time). Expect 5–10 mm of ice, lasting up to 8 hours, which translates to: everything will be shiny and dangerous.
🌧️ Nova Scotia Joins the Slip ’n Slide:
Halifax and most of western, central, and northern NS can expect 4–8 mm of freezing rain for 4–6 hours, with extra spice in higher terrain.
🧊 Meanwhile…
PEI and the rest of New Brunswick are under a “special weather statement,” which is Environment Canada’s polite way of saying, “Good luck.”
📢 What’s Up New Brunswick Pro Tips:
✔️ Walk like a penguin
✔️ Leave early, arrive late
✔️ Assume every surface is ice
✔️ Cancel plans and blame the weather (always acceptable)
Stay safe, stay warm, and remember — if you don’t like the weather, just wait 10 minutes… or until Monday night. 😉
