Snow squalls are expected to develop. Under the snow squall bands, visibility will be significantly reduced due to the heavy snow combined with blowing snow, and snow will quickly accumulate. Locations: Victoria and northern Inverness counties. Total snowfall: potentially up to 15 cm in snow squalls. Maximum wind gusts: northwesterly 70 km/h. Time span: Saturday morning until Sunday morning. Remarks: A cold northwesterly flow of arctic air will likely lead to the development of snow squalls on Saturday. Strong winds will combine with snow squalls to cause reduced visibility in blowing snow. ### Travel may be hazardous. Visibility may be suddenly reduced to near zero at times. Snow squall watches are issued when localized, intense snowfall causing rapid accumulation and/or reduced visibility is possible. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to NSstorm@ec.gc.ca or post reports on X using #NSStorm.
