Ice and rain move through the Maritimes, but worst is over says Environment Canada [Video]

Freezing rain left trees and power lines coated and roads slick Monday morning as Environment Canada issued weather warnings for large parts of the Atlantic region.

The weather agency put most of New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Cape Breton and the western half of Newfoundland under freezing rain warnings.

Most schools in New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island remained closed for the day because of the weather.

Environment Canada meteorologist Jill Maepea said the storm originated in Colorado and moved eastward across Ontario and Quebec before heading to the Atlantic coast.

Although there were “several hours of freezing rain,” the mercury began to climb, rendering the effects of the weather system minor in the Maritime provinces.

“The temperatures — they’re just kind of hovering around zero. It’s a little bit colder still up north,” she said. “The worst of the freezing rain is over.”
