Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for Southern New Brunswick over the potential for significant rainfall starting mid-week.

A slow moving cold front will approach the Maritimes Tuesday night and could draw in tropical moisture from a system off the Eastern Seaboard.

Rain would begin by Wednesday afternoon with heavy downpours possible by early Thursday.

Forecasters say there is still uncertainty but long range models suggest 100 mm or more for the event.
