*...5th least rainy on record
*15th least snowy on record (178.4 cm)
*Least total precip since 1965 (1057.2 mm), and 2nd driest on record.

In weather, 2025 will be best remembered for being dry, coming on the heels of 2024, which was the 19th driest year recorded (1345.2 mm).

Snow bands (streamers) or sea-effect snow making it to Halifax area this morning. We don't often get that type of snow flurries here. Usually take a very cold airmass and winds from the WSW. Not expecting much accumulation. #nswx

~5cm wet, sticky snow has fallen so far. Trees are heavily laden. Had a couple power dips in the last hour. Currently: 0.1C, 89% RH, 988mb, wind calm, snow has stopped. #NSStorm #NSwx near #Kentville

My final post on Bluesky in 2025 will be: weather!
After the weekend system, it looks like the first week of 2026 will be quite cold across Atlantic Canada, but the global ensembles suggest that there will be a significant warm-up for the second week. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLStorm

21 years ago today, an 8-year-old band stallion, stood resting in the sunshine on a relatively calm winter afternoon - 15 kt southerly breeze, 3°C. The beach grass, …

Low pressure system to bring some weather New Year's Day evening and into that night. Halifax - some snow then rain (a few cm). New Glasgow ~10 cm wet snow. #nswx #pewx #nbwx

December was a colder-than-normal month this year - especially up around the Yukon and northern Alberta. Maritime provinces 1 to 3 degrees below normal. #nswx #pewx #nbwx #abwx #ytwx

Nice 24hr trends. From a significant snow threat to a probable rain/flash freeze event. #nswx

As of 20:55AST (0055z) at my place in Hammonds Plains, I have a total of 7.7mm of freezing rain inside my rain gauge. Also did additional ice accretion measurements, average accretion at this time is 4.9mm of ice.

It is still Freezing rain mixed with Snow also.

Missed the sunrise, but my security cameras did catch the pinkish-orange zombie apocalypse hue that fell on everything for a few minutes around 7:45am. Wife and I have headaches. Dogs are loopy. Good luck with today's mess, and possible (inevitable) traffic snarls and power outages! #NSStorm #NSwx

Forecast for Halifax and area for the next few days including NY Eve. Some freezing rain Monday evening then a shot of heavy to clean the dang salt that's all over everything 😑😂. #nswx

Mainland NS and PEI - Cold all weekend, temps in the -4 to -8 range in general. W'chill -10 to -15. Overcast in onshore winds with flurries ... decreasing cloud cover and lighter winds Sunday. Messy weather/milder late Monday-Tuesday #nswx #pewx

Watching a weak system over New Brunswick this morning that's slowly moving south and east throughout the day.
It likely gave parts of northern NB a "perfect" Christmas (snow falling at 7 AM on Christmas Day).
For parts of western NS, it will drop 2-5 cm of snow in the afternoon. #NSwx #NBwx

A bit of snow and flurries for everyone in Atlantic Canada on Christmas Day. A winter storm will take aim at much of Newfoundland, while a weak trough will bring flurries and light snow to the Maritimes, then onshore snow Thursday night. ❄️🎄#NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx #halisky

We dodged a white Christmas with precision that would make a surgeon blush. Mid coast Maine with a foot. Nfld with a forecast foot or so and zero snow for NS. Don’t think I’ve seen that scenario before. Hope that’s not a sign for the rest of the winter. #nswx

Dreaming of a white Christmas? There are flurries and some snow in the forecast for much of the region on Christmas Day — minor some but more significant for others. A detailed breakdown of the forecast here: facebook.com/story.php?st... #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

Chance the small s/w that traverses the province on Christmas Day afternoon might be more robust than progged. White Christmas consolation prize? #nswx
December 23, 2025 at 2:08 PM
Cold across the region on Tuesday. There’s also will remain some onshore snow over the eastern Maritimes and N.L. Some will also see some snow Christmas Eve with a storm that could impact parts of N.L. on Christmas. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

Cold day across the region mid afternoon temps below -5 in many areas with northwest winds. This equates to about 6 degrees below normal. #nswx #pewx
