More rain and high winds are in the cards for HRM on Sunday.

Environment Canada issued both a rainfall and wind warning early Sunday morning as rain that started on Saturday continues to blanket the province.

The national weather service says that rain, at times heavy, is expected in the tune of 25 to 50 mm that is supposed to end early Sunday morning or during the afternoon. They also warned that localized flooding in low-lying areas is possible.

They also say that strong south to southeasterly winds — from 80 to 100 km/h over exposed locations — could cause damage across most of Nova Scotia including Cape Breton Island.

According to Environment Canada, the high winds will continue into Sunday afternoon over eastern sections.

The weather service warned that “loose objects may be tossed by the wind and cause injury or damage” and warned of the possibility of utility outages, which have already affected over 20,000 Nova Scotians.

After the warnings pass, Halifax is set to see mostly cloudy weather with winds only gusting up to 40 km/h tonto a cloudy night.
