Today is Viola Desmond Day in Nova Scotia.

On this day in 1946, Viola Desmond, an African Nova Scotian entrepreneur and mentor, was arrested for daring to violate racial segregation in a New Glasgow theatre, marking a watershed moment for civil rights in Canada.

Heavier rain returns Mon-Tues.

Several meteor showers will fill the night skies during the month of November as well, including the Southern and Northern Taurids.

Some heavier rainfalls over 50mm in SW areas for Halloween. CB was wet into the evening; Ingonish up to 69mm to close the month.
Start of November will be a normal unsettled pattern, with lots of passing systems giving rain... and yes, snow will start to show up in northern areas fairly soon.

Fine day ahead. A band of rain at times heavy crosses the Maritimes on Halloween. Heaviest rain (60+mm) parts Atlantic coast with SE gusts 60-80km/h.
The rain ends, wind briefly subsides, and temps remain mild over much NB, central(HFX), & W NS for trick & treating; then a bit later further N & E.

With the Jays heading to the World Series against the LA Dodgers, Governor Newsom and I have a friendly wager going. Win or lose, we’re thrilled to celebrate great baseball.
