What the Almanac Says About Winter in Nova Scotia

I know, I know summer’s not over yet!
But I’m just getting you prepared for the cold weather ahead. Like it or not, winter is around the corner, and The Old Farmer’s Almanac has released its predictions for our area.

Here’s the breakdown of what’s expected:

  • Wet & Mild Overall: The Old Farmer’s Almanac is calling for a milder-than-average winter across much of Canada, including Nova Scotia. But “mild” still means cold—just not as extreme as usual.
  • Frequent Precipitation: Nova Scotia is forecast to receive above-normal precipitation, mostly in the form of rain-snow mixes.
  • Snowfall: Despite the milder temperatures, snowfall is expected to be above normal, especially during mid-November, December, and early January.

You can read the full extended forecast from the link above!

  • Ben Holmes has lived on the South Shore of Nova Scotia for most of his life and has a deep passion for the culture and community of Nova Scotia and the Maritimes. He believes strongly in the importance of radio and other local media, and the role they play in keeping communities informed, connected, and entertained.
    He is the host of “Breakfast With Ben” on CKBW in Bridgewater. When he is not talking, at least not into a microphone, Ben enjoys spending time outdoors, cycling, watching films, taking road trips, and being around family and friends.
