Rain and windy conditions on the way

An intense low-pressure system will bring a mix of weather to our region.

Rainfall and wind warnings are currently in effect for Saint John and County and Charlotte County.

Between 25 and 40 millimetres of rain is expected to fall by Thursday morning.

Environment Canada is also forecasting wind gusts up to 90 kilometres an hour.

For those in Kings County, including the Kennebecasis Valley, a special weather statement has been issued.

More than 25 millimetres of rain could fall with wind gusts up to 80 kilometres per hour.

A freezing warning that was in effect earlier in the day has come to an end as any freezing precipitation has changed to rain.

Temperatures will continue to climb, reaching 12°C on Wednesday afternoon and holding steady throughout the night.

Those temperatures will fall back down on Thursday but are expected remain above freezing throughout the day.

Bay Ferries has cancelled some Wednesday and Thursday sailings between Saint John, N.B., and Digby, N.S., due to the weather.

The Confederation Bridge advises that high winds Wednesday night into Thursday morning may result in traffic restrictions.
