The risk of severe thunderstorms across a wide swath of New Brunswick has passed.

- Kouchibouguac National Park
- Moncton and southeast New Brunswick
- Miramichi and area
- Oromocto and Sunbury County

The weather agency said conditions were favourable for the development of dangerous thunderstorms.
Those storms may have been capable of producing damaging wind gusts, large hail and heavy rain.
