Subtropical Storm Josephine is expected to bring heavy rain and wind to parts of Nova Scotia and Newfoundland Thursday and Friday.
Environment Canada has issued yellow rainfall warnings for parts of northern and eastern Nova Scotia Thursday with rainfall amounts of 50 to 70 millimetres.
It has also issued wind warnings for the south coast of Newfoundland with wind gusts reaching up to 100 kilometres per hour along the coast Friday afternoon and evening.
The storm started as a low pressure system and is currently off the Atlantic coast of the U.S. and heading northeast.
The system brought rain and heavy winds to the U.S. Eastern Seaboard this week, forcing a cruise ship destined for Florida and the Bahamas to divert to Halifax.
Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas left Cape Liberty, New Jersey Sunday with 5,000 passengers and docked in Halifax Tuesday night and Wednesday.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Oct. 22, 2026.

An IKEA nursery awaiting its tenant is the first stage into which visitors are allowed entry in playwright Jordi Mand’s The Cut.
We see an antique rocker and unmarked boxes strewn about, with a table lamp — an unofficial Ner tamid, eternal candle — sitting on the unblemished carpet in the centre of the room. Sarah (Hallie Seline) and Andrew (Wade Bogert O’Brien) have a lot to unpack as they settle into their own home: two shelves of biography waiting for a third.
The box of books from Sarah’s parents is opened early.
“Something From Nothing? Goodnight Bubbala?” Andrew laughs, turning the volumes cover-out on the wall of his future son’s room. “What are they building? A Jewish bookshelf?”
