Prince Edward Island Sporadic snow or a snow/rain mix is expected across P.E.I..

Nova Scotia Rain will move across southern sections overnight tonight. There is the potential for snow to mix with rain over inland sections. By morning the rain will change to snow for northern sections of Mainland Nova Scotia and Cape Breton Island. There is the potential for significant amounts of snow for Northern Nova Scotia. Snowfall amounts could reach 20 cm in the heaviest snowfall. Southern Nova Scotia could receive heavy rainfall. About 20 mm is possible.
