7 DAY FORECAST, NOVA SCOTIA

I have heard no complaints about the rain in the forecast this weekend, and I’m hopeful it will help wildfire crews and the overall dry situation. The steadier rain will ease to scattered showers on Sunday, with a chance of showers on Monday. Rainfall amounts through Sunday will range from 20 to 40 mm, with pockets of 40 to 60-plus mm possible on mainland Nova Scotia. More rain is forecast on Tuesday and Wednesday, with signals of a diminishing chance of showers late next week. This pattern should benefit crews and help make up for the lack of spring rainfall.
