Quiet in the region on Thursday, but of course a lot of attention on the rain and wind for Halloween. #Melissa is expected to enhance rain in the region and the remnants could track close to the Avalon Peninsula. Full update: facebook.com/story.php?st... #NSwx #NBwx #PEwx #NLwx

Tropical Cyclone Information Statement from @ECCC_CHC for the Grand Banks. Main message: #Melissa expected to enhance late-week rain. While much of the wind will not be from Melissa, a closer track to N.L. (a trend on some models) could bring more direct wind impacts there. #NLwx

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

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...

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
