Areas including Sussex, Kennebecasis Valley, Kings County, St. Stephen, Northern Charlotte County, Kent County, Miramichi, Grand Lake and Queens County are under a Yellow warning-snowfall, with between 15 and 20 centimetres expected.

Higher than normal water levels are also expected along eastern facing coastlines of the Northumberland Strait on Tuesday.

Other areas, including Fredericton, Southern York County, Oromocto, Doaktown and the Blackville region are under special weather statements. Five to ten centimetres of snow is expected, with high winds.
