Significant snowfall expected Thursday afternoon and Thursday night.



Total snowfall: 10 to 25 cm, locally higher amounts possible.



Maximum wind gusts: 60 km/h or higher.



Locations: Most of New Brunswick. Snow will change to rain for areas near the Fundy coast reducing snow amounts there.



Time span: Thursday afternoon through Friday morning.



Remarks: Snow is expected to spread across New Brunswick from west to east beginning Thursday afternoon and will become heavy at times Thursday night before tapering to flurries Friday morning. Strong east to northeast winds will give occasional blowing snow Thursday evening. Over southern parts of the province the snow could mix with or change to ice pellets for a time Thursday evening, and along the Fundy coast the precipitation is expected to change to rain Thursday night.



Motorists should anticipate poor driving conditions due to low visibility and accumulating snow on roads later on Thursday and Thursday night, possibly carrying over into Friday morning in some areas.
