A powerful winter storm is moving through parts of the U.S. and Canada this weekend, unleashing snow and freezing rain along the East Coast.

The system is sweeping through much of the Northeastern U.S. Saturday, before making its way to Ontario — where several weather advisories are in effect.

The storm is set to hit Atlantic Canada on Sunday and Nova Scotians are preparing for its arrival.
