Mostly fine sun cloud mix today; a few late day showers develop in NB cooling off the temps.
Showers become more widespread Thursday as a northeast flow develops.
Showers more likely around the Gulf Fri-Sat in gusty onshore NE winds. Skies clear Sunday.
Looks like a more unsettled pattern late Oct.

Variable cloudiness in the region Wednesday with some drizzle and fog in Newfoundland, and a few showers along a cold front in New Brunswick. A broader pattern change will develop a trough in the jet stream over us, but it won’t result in significant rain. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

Fine today; a mix of sun and high cloud. A few showers develop Wed; more likely in NB. Showers become more likely later in the week with an increasing N to NE wind and cooler temps. Sunday will start to clear with light winds and warmer.

A couple of fine days ahead; some high thin cloud over SW half of Maritimes today; a bit thicker Thanksgiving Day. Cooler in the east today from a NE flow that weakens on Monday.
Low pressure well to our south maintains a brisk NE flow over the Maritimes the rest of the week; just brief showers.

Not surprising to now see exceptional drought observed in parts of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick in the latest AAFC drought update. Almost all of Atlantic Canada remains in some form of drought, worst in the Maritimes and Avalon Peninsula. The full report: agriculture.canada.ca/en/agricultu...

A nice weekend; some high teens today, a bit cooler Sunday.
Clouds move in from the SW on Monday; chance of showers over extreme SW NS. Some models , but not all. bring the showers into Halifax Tuesday. The EU model keeps showers away til Thursday. Next weekend likely more unsettled.

High pressure dominates through the upcoming long weekend, but a cold front will bring a few showers late Saturday to Newfoundland, and a coastal low to our south builds cloud cover later this weekend. A few showers could reach SW N.S. on Thanksgiving. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

The multi-model outlook into late October predicting a fine weekend. Rain chances develop late next week, heavier amounts from the Canadian model.
Afternoon temperatures forecast to be seasonably in the teens throughout the next 2 weeks.

A cool and, for some, frosty night ahead. Brighter skies Friday for much of the Maritimes but still a chance of showers in the east. Cool for Newfoundland with some lingering showers, and possibly flurries in the morning at high elevations farther west 🥶 #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

At 6pm, the rain on the cold front has dropped 25-50+mm so far over parts of the Annapolis Valley into Northern NS. The rain will be in Halifax near 7pm... but doubt we'll see those heavy amounts. Meanwhile some tropical downpours moving onshore Guysborough county.

One of the warmest October days on record in the Maritimes.
New October provincial record set in PEI, where Stanhope hit 28.7° & tied in NB, where Kouchibouguac hit 31.1°.
A few official stations just shy of 31.1° Oct record for NS, however some unofficial spots did exceed that mark!

Still much warmer than normal across the Maritimes on Tuesday with some warmer temperatures also pushing into Newfoundland. Aside from some patchy morning fog, sunshine is in the forecast. A mid-week cold front will bring rain then cooler air. #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

Scattered showers in eastern areas this am become more widespread this aftn over central sections (including HFX). Skies clear overnight or early Thursday (widespread frost NB); then a fine stretch into middle of next week. Low-mid teens next couple of days, but gradually returning to low-mid 20's.

A sun cloud mix today; spotty showers in the east. With a northerly flow, 20C most likely Fundy & Atlantic coasts.
More cloud and higher chances of showers Wednesday to start October. Cooler north winds: lucky to reach the teens.
Clears up and gradually back into the low-mid 20's thru the weekend.
