Environment Canada(Locations listed below description)

temperatures: Falling rapidly from near plus 8 degrees to near minus 5 degrees.
Time span: Late Friday morning into Friday afternoon.
Remarks: An intense cold front will sweep across New Brunswick from North to South on Friday. Rain at times heavy ahead of the front will change quickly through freezing rain to flurries as temperatures plummet beginning late Friday morning or early afternoon.
