The warm weather isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Senior Meteorologist for Accuweather Brett Anderson says it appears that it is going to be a mild season.
“Warmer and drier conditions for the fall. We do think temperatures will be averaging probably around one to two degrees Celsius above normal on average for the next three months, September, October and November.”
Anderson says we’ll also have lower than normal rainfall across the province, “The risk of any tropical systems coming up from the south, probably lower than usual for September and October. One reason for that is the upcoming El Nino, which is starting to form out in the Pacific Ocean.”
If you are tired of the humidity we have been experiencing, Anderson advises you get used to it, because he doesn’t expect it will be going anywhere for the next couple of months.

“Not like we saw in the summer, but I do think it is going to stay high, especially for September. The water temperatures surrounding much of the Maritimes are averaging two to three degrees Celsius above normal. I don’t see that changing anytime soon through the entire season. That certainly has an influence keeping things more humid during the day and also keeping night time temperatures typically warmer than they are,” Anderson says.
