A special weather statement has been issued with “significant” mixed precipitation expected Wednesday night into Thursday. As of 4:45 p.m. Tuesday, Environment Canada is calling for a 60 per cent chance of snow or ice pellets in the Halifax area overnight into Thursday. Thursday’s forecast calls for snow during the day, then periods of snow or rain that night. According to the statement, we could see between five and 10 cm of snow/ice pellets and 10 to 15 mm of rain. It looks like the South Shore will get more rain, but freezing rain is a risk in inland areas. And the snow/ice pellet totals could exceed 10 cm in some parts of the Annapolis Valley, central and northern regions, and Cape Breton, “Similar storms in the past have caused traffic delays and hazardous driving conditions,” the weather statement said. “Travel could become difficult. If you must travel, be prepared for delays and allow extra time to reach your destination.” So far this winter, Halifax has only seen a few light dustings of snow, with only 1.4 cm recorded at the airport in all of December. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post Missing EHS kit contains potentially harmful medication next post الحمض النووي يمكن أن يعيش مليوني عام بخلاف ما كان يُعتقد منذ فترة طويلة You may also like Man faces long list of charges after standoff... 13 مارس، 2025 استطلاع: 40% من الكنديين يخشون فقدان وظائفهم 13 مارس، 2025 كندا تخفف العقوبات المالية عن سوريا وتندّد بالمجازر... 13 مارس، 2025 ‘Get ready for a wild ride’: Weather Network... 13 مارس، 2025 Clear skies expected in much of Nova Scotia... 13 مارس، 2025 Nova Scotia NDP urging public to weigh in... 13 مارس، 2025 Unsafe tap water is common in Newfoundland.
