First, a low pressure system will arrive on Wednesday night from the southwest with snowfall spreading through to the northeast of the province by noon on Thursday.

At some point, it’s expected that the heavy snow will taper in the southern part of New Brunswick, becoming showers or flurries. In the north, the snow is expected to continue into Friday.

If that wasn’t enough, a second storm front will spread snow, mixed with rain, from the east.
