ICON shows heavy rain across NS on Tuesday night, with snow in parts of NB.

Euro shows the centre near Sable Island, with a mixture of rain and snow over Nova Scotia.

GFS shows the centre of the storm just south of the NS coast, with heavy snow inland and heavy rain along the coast.

CMC shows the centre of the storm sliding along the coast, spreading rain across most of NS with some snow in NB on Tuesday night.

Looking at the possible #snow storm on #Wednesday for #NovaScotia.
We know: there will be a fairly potent low-pressure system then.
We don't know:
1) Where exactly will it track?
2) How deep will the cold air be?
This matters A LOT for who gets snow and who gets rain. #NSwx #NBwx #NLwx #PEwx

Decent accumulation last night in the valley with flurries all night. Around 5 cm #nsstorm #nswx

Pretty exceptional gust recorded in Plateau, Nova Scotia from Les Suêtes winds. Gust of 209 km/h was just recorded. That’s 130 mph. While unofficial, still historical. Data from CB Mesonet (capebretonweather.ca) @yhzweatherguy.bsky.social @allisteraalders.bsky.social @ryansnoddon.bsky.social

Interestingly, temps are staying far below forecast. Still -8° in the valley with the forecast at -2,-3°. Just over 5 cm down in #Kentville. #NSstorm #Nswx #NSsnow

Cold front very visible on Mesonet data. Snow to begin soon for the Valley, and then Halifax. Stronger NW winds expected could cause blowing snow. And if in heavy snow: maybe white-out conditions

Greenwood airport obs also reporting mix

1.3° and mixing in Kentville #NSstorm #NSwx

After a rain event Sun., Mon is looking to be snowy. HFX area and east will likely see trace amounts of snowfall (mostly rain); however western NS and northern NS could see 5-15 cm by noon Mon. Heaviest snow in the morn may cause travel disruptions. Keep an eye on it. #NSstorm #NSwx #NSsnow

Picture-perfect weather on what is a true white Christmas for the first time in several years. Merry Christmas! 🎅🎄

On my very sheltered deck I measured 27 cm. Greenwood airport measured 28 cm...must've blown around for you

Bay-effect snow continued through today. Not much accumulated in Kentville, at most 2 cm. Friday-Sunday storm total for me is 27 cm. Greenwood CFB confirming at 28 cm. Overall, close enough to forecast thanks to backend snow. Next snow event is Christmas eve: more to follow. #NSStorm #NSwx

Make sure to add units to the map! Could be inches, centimenters, decameters, who knows.

Woke up to 4 cm in Kentville. Under a winter storm warning originally for 30-40 cm. Dry air the culprit?

Snow has started to fall here in Kentville! Will continue to fall for 24 more hours amounting to up to 40 cm. Expecting to wake up to 15-20 cm. #NSstorm #NSwx

Not much change in the outlook for Friday night - Saturday. A general 15 to 30 cm central/western N.S., P.E.I., southeast N.B., and N.L's Northern Peninsula. Mixing looks to limit amounts in eastern Nova Scotia and N.L. Moving south and east in N.L. it will be more rain than snow. #NS #NB #PEI #NL

Some gusty winds from the northeast are likely (50-60 km/h) which will hinder visibility further and make the road conditions even worse. (2/2) #NSstorm #NSwx

A snowfall warning has been released for mainland Nova Scotia. 15-30 cm is expected across the province (CB and Eastern Shore may see a change to rain) starting Fri eve/night dwindling Sat. For the Valley, Bay-enhanced/back-end snow could occur after the storm. (1/2) #Nsstorm #NSwx #NSsnow #wxbsky

Summary of Fri night/Sat morning snow system here in the Maritimes. Snow could have a 'stick factor' (hard to predict the extent of that though) and winds will become gusty so keep that in mind. Our official alerts: weather.gc.ca?layers=alert... #nswx #nsstorm #pewx #pestorm #nbwx

Models now agree for a major snow event Sat. Track wobbles are still possible: affecting snow totals. Generally, 10-25 cm across NS (xcpt east CB) with higher totals under heavier bands. Up to even 40 cm in some models. Once forecast is final or just about I'll post my thoughts. #NSStorm #NSwx

Pre-Christmas travel plans this weekend?
Heads up that we have system tracking into the region that may bring snow on Saturday.
Track of the system will be key & has yet to be ironed out, however this has the potential to bring an impactful snowfall.
Stay tuned for updates.

Consensus for a snowstorm effecting Atlantic Canada on Saturday is growing. While specifics can’t be ruled out, 10-30+ cm is possible across the whole region. Some models show it more offshore (GFS) but they seem to be trending back. Details TBD. Euro and Canadian models below ⬇️ #NSstorm #Nsstorm

High pressure builds into the region allowing for fair conditions for much of Atlantic Canada. However, some onshore snow for parts of Cape Breton tonight - Saturday. Onshore flurries for Newfoundland's west-facing coastlines tonight - Sat., except squalls on the west coast. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

What will the frequency be on the Gulf Coast service? Just one rt a day?

Winds are starting to pick up this evening as temps rise. 14.3°C at my house and some parts of the province are around 17°!! Truly feels like spring! #NSstorm #Nswx

Freezing Rain Warning in effect for the Annapolis Valley and Northern NS along the Gulf. Freezing rain is ongoing here in Kentville and it's slippery out there. Freezing rain continues into the early evening where it will be replaced by normal rain when temps rise. Warmer tomorrow. #NSwx #NSstorm

Schools are closed today across the Anna. Valley as snow starts to move in to the region. This morning: light snow and freezing drizzle changing to ice pellets in the afternoon. #NSStorm #NSwx

Snow is turning to a mix of rain and snow here in Kentville as temps increase above 0. Before rain started I measured 5 cm here in Kentville. #nsstorm #Nswx

Fast-moving clipper brings snow and rain to the Maritimes Sunday, N.L. Sunday night and Monday. Full update on my Facebook page here: www.facebook.com/share/p/15fy... #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

As the strongest of the #winds ease through today across NFLD, snow & blowing snow continues across Labrador. Meanwhile, snow #squalls could be quite persistent across Cape Breton & NL as colder air blows across the Gulf. Expect rough travel & poor visibility. On Sunday, widespread snowfall.

Watching Sunday the 8th for a small NS-wide snow event likely 👀. EURO & GFS models have a widespread 5 cm across the province with higher totals inland and higher elevation. Up to 20 possible for CB Highlands. Details TBD... #nswx #nsstorm #wxbsky #wxsky #snow #novascotia
