While exact details on its strength are still uncertain, rain and windy conditions are likely. Residents should stay updated on weather developments as the week progresses.
Eastern Canada: Signs of a soggy Halloween night
A trough pattern is projected to develop across Eastern Canada, leading to below-seasonal temperatures for the final week of October.
We are closely monitoring a large low pressure system, possibly a nor’easter, forming along the U.S. East Coast late in the week. Its potential track could bring increased rainfall to southern Ontario and Quebec, with significant impacts expected across Atlantic Canada, including heavy rain and strong winds closer to Halloween.
A big wild card will be if the storm system taps into the moisture of Tropical Storm Melissa, which is forecast to strengthen into a hurricane this week.
