WINTER IN NEW BRUNSWICK, CANADA [Is it that BAD?]

"How bad are winters in New Brunswick?" that's one of the top question I get asked by people looking to relocate to this province. Believe it or not it's not that bad, and winter in New Brunswick can actually be quite enjoyable...if you have the right mindset. From skating on the lake, hiking, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, and winter festivals, the amount of activities you can do, will definitely keep you busy and enjoying the colder months.Take a look!

Winters in the maritimes are brutal. Lots of snow, very windy and cold.

[@Kanadaauswandern]

Come to Saskatchewan, its bad here

[@dmax64]

@@Kanadaauswandern I've lived in Vancouver BC and Prince Albert Sask as well and you can't compare a dry cold(Sask) with a damp cold(BC and PE)keeping in mind she's trying to selll properties and is putting a positive spin on the cold winters.

This is my fifth winter in NB, and mildest to date. Maybe we've been lucky, but I haven't found the winters to be too bad in NB :)

[@BestLife1133]

2024 is my 3rd summer; 2nd winter near the border with Maine. Weather reminds me a lot of Calgary. It snows but they're ready for it. Dec., Jan., & Feb=winter. March is melting & warmish.

[@lanebashford3982]

My moms folks are from there, in Westmorland and Kent counties. They do have wicked cold winters sith lots of snow and ice.

[@neiljosselyn8417]

Winters in Saint John NB are unpredictable. But in the past 20 years 1 in 5 is really bad. 2023-24 we had zero snow storms. The last really bad winter was 2013-14. That’s a long time ago. Is it more snow on average than Toronto probably, but when your mortgage payment is at least $1500/month less you can probably afford a snow blower or a plow, and a winter vacation.

Great video, thank you for sharing some of the great things you can do in New Brunswick winters.

[@JennyCelly]

Thank you! You definitely need to have the right mindset and enjoy all the things you can do in the colder weather :)

[@DesiAnanth]

It depends on body adaptability. You guys hav been living there since birth so ur body is adjusted. For someone like me, I ws born in a desert of India where 35C is yearly average. I have run 10k in 46C and I can work long hrs in extreme heat. But if temperature goes below 25C I start shivering. I'm moving to New brunswick next month and i'm really scared. never been in a temperature below 20C and never seen snow in my life.

[@JennyCelly]

Hi Desi, I completely understand your concern. I was actually born in Colombia. One of the hottest countries in South America. I also thrive in the summer but the secret to not having a negative experience in the winter cold is to layer well and use good thermal clothing - boots, gloves, hats, snow pants and even balaclavas. You might feel silly with so much clothing but at least you’ll be warm. Nothing to fear 😊 Winters can be fun and beautiful too if you dress warm and have a positive attitude to enjoy the cold ☃️

I hope you like it, don’t worry too much there have been many people in your exact situation before and they survived. Just embrace it!

[@DesiAnanth]

Awesome video. Love my Sackville winters!!!

[@JennyCelly]

I agree, they are great! 😊

[@Drtbykr1]

I’m 63 and this has been the wimpiest winter I can remember. December was like October, January was a piece of cake. Snowmobiling and skiing are non-existent or terrible. Good news, I’m caught up on my power bill in February for the first time in ages.

[@JennyCelly]

Haha! Yes, it was definitely a mild winter this year. We put an ice rink for my son and he maybe got 8 uses out of it 🤪

[@stephaneduguay7267]

You didn't mansion the north of N.B. it's most of the time worst than the south, it's a bit colder and we usually get more snow. ❄️

[@MrDJHawk]

Great video. There's so much to enjoy about winters in New Brunswick (I'm just outside of Saint John). Although slightly cooler on average than Toronto, our winters are slightly more mild than Ottawa or Montreal.

[@JennyCelly]

Hi Michael! Thanks for your message 🙂🙏 I agree, there’s a lot to enjoy about winters in NB - you just have to bundle up and and have the right mindset.

[@mollymaciulla1917]

This is very informative; we are looking near maybe Edmundston or somewhere in between there and Fort Kent, Maine (but on your side of the border). My spouse is a dr and got a job offer out there (ft kent) and I really want to live in New Brunswick. 😊

[@JennyCelly]

Hi Molly! How exciting that you'll be headed to NB soon :) Best of luck with the move and happy to chat if you have any questions about living in NB, both pros and cons :)

[@paulmaxwell8851]

My wife and I live in small town central British Columbia. I won't say exactly where. When people ask, I tell them the winters are brutal: deep, deep snow and unimaginably cold. This IS kinda true, but I don't mention that we love it here. Oh, and the mosquitos and black flies in summer! Stay in the city, folks. It's hell out here!

[@JennyCelly]

Hey Paul! This is my fifth winter in NB, and mildest to date and with the least snow. Maybe we've been lucky, but I haven't found the winters to be too bad in NB :) Ah yes, black flies and mosquitos, those ones won't be going away anytime soon 😆

[@KingofEverything7]

Hi Jenny, any particular regions in New Brunswik where the winters are least bothersome?

[@derekdevries1284]

To bad your not in Saint John that's where we're think of moving to for Ontario. Any good references you can think of ? Or a real estate agent or company?

[@JennyCelly]

Hey Derek, I have great realtors I can refer you too. Reach out that I’m happy to help and answer any questions you might have about making this move 🙂

[@RawLu.]

[@gebrehiwotmehari3850]

[@ehhcanada]

Ontario had a far worse winter then the fredericton area this year

[@JennyCelly]

That is true!

[@aemeliamead1022]

Yep it was nuts! We got 60cm of snowfall in Toronto in just a few hours. I’ve lived here my whole life and never saw that much snow before.

[@mapofthesoultagme7143]

People are more likely to be warm if they wear more layers of clothes compared to one big thick layer but less layers in total

[@JennyCelly]

That is true. Layering in the cold is a great method to keep warm.

[@JokerdanFF]

Good

Hi plzz make a video of miramichi as a international students

[@dialiu2269]

As a young couple thinking of moving to NB,we thank you for this informative video ! I was also wondering if winters in NB are very humid ? Did you have any trouble with dampness and mold indoors?

[@JennyCelly]

Thanks for your comment Dia 🙂 Winters here are not humid, on the contrary, winter humidity is much more challenging in the colder months because as the furnace runs, it tends to dry out the air. This causes dry skin, throat irritation, and more. To combat this, many Canadians turn to humidifiers, to increase the relative humidity in their home. Our summers are definitely humid but air exchangers in homes definitely help control the levels.

[@stephaneduguay7267]

You should consider that the north and south are commonly very different conditions. The northern part of New Brunswick usually have more snow and is colder.

How about in Woodstock?

[@JennyCelly]

Hi Sheal, January is the coldest month in Woodstock, with temperatures averaging -10.4 °C. July is the warmest month of the year with averages of 19.3 °C. It's a sweet town and you would be the best judge if it's the place for you. Take a look at their official website for more info: www.town.woodstock.nb.ca/
