In Nova Scotia, rainfall warnings are in place across most of the province. Environment Canada says up to 50 mm is possible.
“Rain will transition through freezing rain, ice pellets, and snow by this evening before precipitation tapers off tonight,” the warning reads.
A freezing warning is also in effect across central and northern mainland Nova Scotia, as well as the Annapolis Valley.
Environment Canada says the rain in those areas will transition to a period of freezing rain and ice pellets before tapering to light snow by the evening.
In New Brunswick, freezing rain warnings are in effect in Moncton and southeastern areas of the province.
