Halifax sees a shifting sky today, with conditions developing as the live forecast above indicates; expect a blend of sun and cloud before a chance of showers moves in late afternoon from the Minas Basin side.
What does the rest of the day bring?
The morning starts with broken cloud and a light southwest breeze off the harbour. By midday, temperatures will climb to the range shown in the live forecast above, but a trough sliding down from the Bay of Fundy could trigger isolated showers after 3 p.m. Overnight, skies clear again as cooler air from inland Nova Scotia settles in.
Should you adjust outdoor plans?
If you’re heading to the Halifax Waterfront or Point Pleasant Park, the midday window is fine, but pack a light jacket and an umbrella for the late afternoon. Winds stay modest, around 15 km/h, so ferry crossings to Dartmouth should remain smooth.
