The Snow Is Done Falling, But The Temperature Isn't

Now that we're done shoveling snow -- it's time to throw on an extra sweater.


Environment Canada reporting 22 cms of snow falling on St. Stephen yesterday (Sunday, December 30th) with higher amounts being reported outside of town.

Meteorologist Linda Libby tells Tide News Charlotte County may see a few flurries over the next week. She says, "Primarily tonight and tomorrow, we will see a chance of flurries for New Year's Day. After that, we are either looking at sunshine, or a mix of sun and cloud with no weather systems at this time in our near forecast."


Libby says in the New Year, the temperature is going to drop. She says, "It won't be too bad for the next day or so, but by time we get to Wednesday or Thursday, where we are under a ridge of high pressure, we will see daily highs of minus 12 degrees ( C ) which is considerably colder than normal for this time of the year." Libby says the overnight lows will drop to the mid to low teens, which is just slightly colder than normal for this time of year.
