Heavy rain is continuing across parts of the Maritimes this morning. The good news is that the rain will come to an end this afternoon across most of the Maritimes.

Rain will make it to most of Newfoundland tonight. About 5 to 10 mm is expected for most areas with the exception of the south coast where up to 60 mm is possible, especially on the Burin and Connaigre Peninsulas.

In Labrador, we have a mix of snow, rain, and freezing rain. Western Labrador will see freezing rain this morning before temperatures warm up. Up to 20 cm of snow is possible by Thursday in Nain and vicinity. 20 to 30 mm of rain is possible in areas under a rainfall warning.
