When you finish digging out from our Christmas storm, you will need to turn up the thermostat and throw another log on the fire.
Environment Canada tells us a cold Arctic airmass will slide over New Brunswick tonight causing temperatures to drop below minus 20 across much of the province.
The cold temperatures mixed with strong, gusty westerly winds will give wind chill values from minus 27 in the south to minus 34 in northwestern portions of the province.

Things were pretty slow for the Saint John police during the Christmas storm.
The roads were snowpacked and slippery in some areas and the wind did impact visibility for the few drivers who were out yesterday.
Some areas are a bit slippery this morning.
Saint John got 16 centimetres while Moncton got 20 and our friends in Bathurst are dealing with a whopping 46 centimetres of snow.
Thousands of homes and businesses are off the grid in Nova Scotia and some crews from NB Power are heading there to help get the lights back on.
NB Power crews are hitting the road this morning to help get our neighbors in Nova Scotia get back online after yesterday’s storm knocked out power to thousands. #nsstom @nspowerinc
