Freezing rain warnings have been issued for parts of central and northern Nova Scotia, affecting several counties along the Fundy and Northumberland shores.
The areas under warning include Kings, Annapolis, Cumberland, Colchester, Hants, Pictou, and Antigonish counties, where freezing rain is expected to occur or is already happening.
The warning is expected to last for 4 to 6 hours, with conditions expected to improve by Tuesday evening as temperatures rise and the freezing rain transitions to rain.

Travelers should expect hazardous conditions on roads, walkways, and parking lots, which may become icy and slippery.
It’s advised to check road conditions before heading out, especially in areas under the warning, as driving and walking could be dangerous.
No warnings have been issued for the Atlantic coast or Cape Breton, but steady rainfall will continue in those regions overnight.
