A new updated snowfall forecast has just been made as new weather data came in, and the heavy rain and speed of the system took into account.

Rain is already approaching parts of the extreme South east portions of the province and this would cut back on snowfall totals lower than models predicted.

Up to only 6cm is forecast for that area in the south-east.

Up to 12cm for Yarmouth to Kentville, Bridgewater and Liverpool as well as much of Cape Breton.

Up to 20cm can be expected for a big chunk of the province, Cumberland, Colchester, Pictou, Hants, Halifax and Halifax Metro, Antigonish and Guysborough.

Up to 30cm can be expected for NW Cape Breton this includes North Mountain to Cheticamp.

Sydney can only see up to 6cm of snow.
