Hurricane Watch for South Shore Communities: Chester, Hubbards, Bridgewater, and Yarmouth

Overview

The South Shore of Nova Scotia is bracing for the potential impacts of Hurricane Atlantic. While the storm's core is forecast to track well to our south, its immense size will bring significant hazards to coastal areas. The main concerns for our communities are high winds, dangerous storm surges, and large, pounding waves. Residents in coastal and low-lying areas, from Chester to Yarmouth, are advised to take all necessary precautions. Secure your properties, have your 72-hour emergency kits ready, and stay tuned for local updates. Emergency services are coordinating across the region to prepare for any eventuality.
