Regional Impacts
Locally heavy downpours giving 15-25 mm for areas affected by thunderstorms.
Convective Discussion
After a bout of intense lightning activity overnight things are expected to be somewhat less intense today. Some thunderstorms will continue over Nova Scotia and possibly into southern New Brunswick and PEI later in the day. Updraft potential is not expected to be very high however some favourable dynamics are like to organise the convection into multicell clusters, with some upper support before the upper jet exits the region later today. Locally 15-25mm is expected, slightly less than the rainfall rates than the ~25mm/hr that we saw overnight. Some small hail is possible with the lowering freezing levels but it should well below warning level.
