Expires: Wed July 22, 2026, 8:53 PM
Locations: most of mainland Nova Scotia and Cape Breton Island. Total rainfall: 30 to 50 mm, possibly higher in thundershowers. Time span: until Thursday afternoon. Remarks: A prolonged period of rainfall is expected to begin this morning and may linger late into the day on Thursday, especially areas along the Atlantic coast. The heaviest rain is expected to fall this morning and afternoon before tapering to steady drizzle or showers by the evening. Another round of heavy rain is possible on Thursday morning. Rainfall rates of 20 to 40 mm per hour may occur over some locations. Thundershowers are expected to develop over some areas, producing locally heavier rainfall, leading to highly variable rainfall totals over short distances. Rainfall warnings have been issued for parts of southern mainland Nova Scotia and may need to be expanded as confidence increases. ### Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada.
