2021 started out mostly calmly for the Atlantic provinces, but snowfall warnings were issued ahead of a strong, snowy system that s set to slam the region Saturday.

For people nearest the Atlantic coast, however, it will be more rain than snow to prepare for. Details and timing, below.
Holly House, a supportive housing option for vulnerable women and those just leaving jail or prison, will get $360,000 from the provincial government over the next two years.
