A severe thunderstorm watch is in effect for a large portion of New Brunswick.
Environment Canada says the alert stretches from St. Stephen all the way up through Campbellton.
There could be strong winds, up to 1 to 2 cm of large hail, and lots of rain with 30 mm in the heaviest downpours.
The forecaster says there is also a slight risk of a tornado.
The alert will be in effect until later Friday evening.
