Heavy snowfall in store for much of New Brunswick

    A winter storm is moving into New Brunswick with heavy snow and gusty winds, with a large
    temperature drop follows.

    CBC meteorologist Ryan Snoddon says most of the province is expected to see totals between 15 and 30 centimetres, with slightly less in the northwest part of the province.

    Snow will start tonight and some rain may fall in the south. The snow will continue overnight and into Monday, meaning a slow morning commute.

    Northwesterly winds with gusts of 40-50 km/h will pick up overnight and last all day Monday, leading to blowing snow and reduced visibility for those traveling.

    Those northwest winds will also usher in a much cooler air mass. Temperatures will drop all day on Sunday night on Monday, before dropping to -18C to -24C on Tuesday morning.

    Temperatures will remain below seasonal temperatures throughout the week, with relatively calm conditions and some welcome sunshine on the way.
