Moncton and the rest of southeastern New Brunswick saw the region's first winter storm overnight Friday.
The weather system brought five to 10 centimetres of snow. Another 10 to 15 centimetres was expected through Saturday, according to Environment Canada.

Air Canada is advised travellers of winter operating conditions for all New Brunswick airports. Passengers were advised to check their flight status before heading to the airport.
On Saturday afternoon, RCMP in New Brunswick warned that travel on Highway 2 between Moncton and Nova Scotia was not recommended due to poor road conditions and low visibility.
