The most snow is anticipated to fall in New Brunswick. Special weather statements cautioning on totals reaching 10 to 20 cm have been issued for the northern half of the province.
Areas of central New Brunswick could see two to 10 cm of slushy snow followed by a change to rain.
Much of the remainder of the Maritimes may see a bit of snow but a quicker turn to rain with 15 to 40 mm expected. Locally higher amounts approaching 50 mm may be possible near the Atlantic coastline of Nova Scotia from Porters Lake, Halifax County to Port Morien, Cape Breton.
Most of the snow and rain is expected to fall between 2 a.m. Thursday and 2 a.m. Friday.
