Residents in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, should prepare for slippery roads and sidewalks as freezing rain is expected to move into the area on Wednesday, March 11, 2026. This weather shift follows a brief warm period and brings a significant risk of ice building up on local surfaces.
According to Environment Canada, the region will see periods of rain or freezing rain on Wednesday with a high temperature of 1°C. These conditions are expected to continue through Wednesday night as the temperature drops to a low of -2°C.
The freezing rain could make travelling difficult for the Wednesday evening and Thursday morning commutes. Drivers and pedestrians are encouraged to use extra caution on streets and walkways where ice might accumulate.
On Thursday, March 12, 2026, the weather is expected to warm up to a high of 12°C. This increase in temperature, along with predicted showers, will likely help melt any ice that built up during the previous day.
