Though we're not breaking any records, Saint John is certainly seeing a dramatic change in temperature from last night to today.
Claude Cote, a meteorologist from Environment Canada, tells CHSJ news we've experience a 30 degree temperature change in just 6 hours. Claude says that's highly unusual, seeing that we were at -25.1 degrees at 4 am, and +4.5 at noon.
The highest temperature this time of year was actually 11.7 degrees in 1874, with the record low being -27.8 in the 50's.
He says another odd aspect about the temperature is that there's a 25 degree difference between central New Brunswick and coastal areas along the Bay of Fundy. He adds the mild temperatures over the next few days is sure to melt a lot of snow.
