Simple graph (sketch/estimate) showing how the sun angle this time of year is same as late Aug/early Sept but the ocean temperatures vastly different. They take a very long time to warm, naturally. 2+ months. #nswx
Warmer than today for most on Friday with more sunshine. There will be some showers that move into northern New Brunswick ahead of a front that will bring showers to the Maritimes Friday night - Saturday. N.L. chance of showers/flurries on the northern peninsula. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx #halisky
Forecast Friday - lots of sun and southerly winds with the typical sharp gradients in temperature. #nswx #pewx #nbwx
Lots of sunshine in the Maritimes on Thursday with temperatures warmer for most — still cool on coastlines exposed to onshore winds. Newfoundland will also see a fair amount of sun but a chance of flurries or showers, mainly in central/west. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx
A break in the unsettled pattern across the region for Thursday. However, another system similar to today’s moves in through Good Friday with a mix of snow, ice and rain. Another system set for Easter Sunday! A very active early-spring pattern. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx
The 12Z Euro ensembles show a strong Bermuda high around 1030 mbar, along with a very strong Arctic high around 1040 mbar over Hudson's Bay, with a weak low-pressure system between them on Friday night.
The 12Z Euro ensembles show a 1035 Arctic high over Ontario, along with a 1038 mbar Azores Bermuda high, with a 1009 low between them on Wednesday morning.
The first week of April could have not one, but potentially two ice storms across Atlantic Canada, with the Wed one likely being farther north than the Fri one.
A strong Azores Bermuda high south of a strong Arctic high is a classic setup for warm air aloft & cold surface air. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx
A mix of sun and cloud in the Atlantic region this weekend with a chance of some scattered, often isolated flurries. Offshore low could brush parts of the eastern Avalon with light snow Saturday night. Temperatures though will be much cooler than average! #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx
A trough and cold front will bring some scattered flurries/bursts of snow with a chance of a shower as it crosses the region Wednesday. Otherwise some sun in the mix. Unsettled weather expected to end the week. The full forecast: facebook.com/story.php?st... #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx
I was looking at my @CoCoRaHSCanada station data and comparing it to the nearest station where I have normals calculated by @environmentca. Looks like we have been having a wetter winter than normal.

Downed trees and snapped power lines could be seen throughout Halifax. Power outages spanned the province, with roughly 53,000 customers losing electricity since the start of the storm, according to the @nspowerinc.bsky.social. #NSstorm #NSwx www.theweathernetwork.com/en/news/weat...
And that's that; just as quickly as the winds kicked up, it's gone. Sky is brightening up, rain ended, light breeze, temperature falling: 11.5C. #NSStorm #NSwx near #Kentville
Ironic timing: EC dropped the wind warning for my area, and it flipped from quietly breezy to absolute rip roaring in an instant. #NSStorm #NSwx near #Kentville
Estimate of the snowpack moisture content as of Monday morning and the predicted snowpack by the end of Tuesday afternoon. Add this estimated melt to the forecast rainfalls to get an idea of total 'water'. #nswx #pewx #nbwx
Sounds about write. I had 12cms just down the road in Windsor Jct. #nswx
At my place in Hammonds Pains I had 8.5cm of snowfall with a SWE of 11.2mm giving a SLR of 7.6:1

Rain mixes to snow in Nova Scotia, P.E.I., and southeast New Brunswick overnight which could make for a slick drive to work. Clearing on Friday. The front will also mix rain to snow for Newfoundland on Friday. The full forecast: facebook.com/story.php?st... #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

Current max temperatures for Mar 10 as of 3:15 PM, with three stations, one near Bridgewater, two near Windsor, crossing 20C. Several other inland stations reached the high teens.
And there we go: two stations near Windsor, along with Bridgewater, crossed 20C! First time in 2026, which unofficially makes this a summer day in those locations. I wonder how warm they will ultimately get?
#NSwx
Daily high temperatures via Cape Breton Mesonet as of 3 PM. Many weather stations inland have reached into the high teens, with the highest two reaching 19.8C.
Today's high temperatures, via the Cape Breton Mesonet. Inland, there are lots of temps that reached into the high teens, which brings the question: could we get our first 20C temperature of 2026?? We're very close, and there's still time for temps to rise further....

Early spring conditions today ... here are temperatures (C) around 12:30 pm. Up to 17C/63F so far. #nswx #pewx
Fair and in most cases a bit warmer for much of Atlantic Canada on Tuesday. Cooler temperatures and a messy mix moves into the region Wednesday and Wednesday night. Full detailed update here: facebook.com/story.php?st... #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx
Winter’s back is broken. Hopefully we accumulated enough snow pack to keep forests from becoming tinderboxes. We’ll see #nswx
