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!

Incoming cold front will shift our winds to north & usher in a fall feel over the next few days.
Apart from a few showers behind the front on Tuesday & Wednesday, it's high pressure that will dominate for the next week.
Meanwhile, Humberto and Imelda track well offshore.

Tropical Storm Gabrielle has developed.
It's not much to look at right now & intensity uncertainty remains for the next few days as it fights strong upper level winds while moving towards Bermuda.
Long range models currently favor a track offshore, but it's a long way out.

Solid 10-20 mm for 'most' of the region.
Unfortunately, again, the area that needed this the most, saw some of the lowest totals. Bay of Fundy region including much of the Annapolis Valley and Grand Manan picked up near 10 mm or even less.
