Maugerville resident Markus Harvey says his small New Brunswick community has been left mourning after a "freak accident" that resulted in a man getting struck and killed by a tractor-trailer while standing in the driveway of his home.
For this year, the snow pack in the northern part of the province provides a positive sign.
Downey said there s about 10.9 centimetres of water equivalent in the snow pack, whereas the 20-year average for this time of year is 15.5 centimetres. That s obviously good. You d rather see it below in terms of potential flooding, but again, it matters how quickly does it melt.
Markus Harvey, a Maugerville, N.B., resident who weathered the floods of 2018 and 2019 in one of the hardest hit parts of the province, said he s optimistic for this year. Initial thoughts right now are things are looking good, he said.
