Nor'easter threatens as storm cleanup continues

While the storm cleanup continues across P.E.I. Wednesday, the province can expect another blast of stormy weather Thursday.

Both English and French school boards operated on a one-hour delay to allow crews extra time to make sure school zones were safe.

• Heavy snowfall, high winds close down P.E.I.
• P.E.I. Storm Centre

All main roads across the province are partly snow covered icy sports.

The Charlottetown public works department is advising that parking in the downtown is going to be limited Wednesday because of the snow.

Only one flight is delayed at the Charlottetown Airport, the noon flight to and from Toronto.

Wind, snow, rain

Environment Canada has issued a winter storm watch for Prince and Queens Counties and a special weather statement for Kings, for Thursday.

A Nor'easter is expected to begin around 9 a.m. Thursday and will take much the same track as our most recent storm, says CBC meteorologist Peter Coade.

Snow accumulation is expected to be in the 10 to 15 centimetre range in Prince County, says Coade.

"With wind picking up in the evening, some blowing snow in the evening."

In Queens County, the snow will change to rain in the morning and back to snow in the evening. Five to 10 centimetres and five to 10 millimetres of rain are expected.

"And for Kings County, the wettest of the three, the snow changes to rain in the morning with rainfall amounts 10 to 15 millimetres with snowfall amounts just two centimetres or so," says Coade.

Temperatures will be above normalThursdaydue to the storm's southerly wind, but it will turn colder Friday, he says.
