Residents in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, should prepare for a quick change in weather as rain turns into a mix of snow and ice pellets early Friday morning. According to Environment Canada, the shift is expected to happen between 2:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. on March 13, 2026.
Temperatures are expected to drop significantly during the night, falling from 5°C late Thursday night to -2°C by 6:00 a.m. on Friday. This freeze could cause leftover moisture on the roads to turn into ice, creating slippery conditions for the Friday morning commute.
