Storm Causes Disruptions


Schools closed today in Anglophone South from Sussex to St. Stephen including the Saint John area as well as schools in Francophone South, Anglophone West, Eastern College and Eastern Trades College.

Classes at the New Brunswick Community College in Saint John and St. Andrews and at U-N-B Saint John were also delayed.

Gelas Duguay of Environment Canada tells Tide News Saint John won't be getting as much snow as earlier forecast with just another 2 to 4 centimeters along the coastline with more the further inland you are.

In the Fredericton area, they're expecting 30 or more centimeters of snow. Duguay also telling us it will be turning a lot colder as we get into the afternoon.

Air Canada flights from Toronto and Montreal into Saint John Airport have been cancelled through noon hour, meaning no departures for Montreal and Toronto until later this afternoon. The only flight leaving the airport this morning will be at 9:40 for Halifax.
