Yet another storm system will cross eastern North America over the next few days bringing with it a mix of snow, rain, ice and strong winds.
The large-scale storm will bring blizzard conditions to the Great Lakes region with heavy rain moving up the Eastern Seaboard.
The storm will then arrive in the Maritimes on Saturday and Saturday night.

Widespread southeast wind gusts 70 to 100 km/h are looking likely across Nova Scotia, with some coastal and exposed areas likely to see gusts exceeding 100 km/h.
The strongest winds will likely be limited to a six-hour period. (Ryan Snoddon/CBC)
The fast-moving storm will mean that the strongest winds will be limited to about a six-hour period as the storm blows through.
The strong winds will bring pounding waves and high water levels to the coastal areas beginning Saturday afternoon and continuing into Sunday.
Environment and Climate Change Canada has issued special weather statements ahead of the storm and is warning of the risk of coastal flooding, especially near high tide.
