After an afternoon of desperately needed rain, the clouds parted just in time to produce a spectacular sunset. #NewBrunswick #eastcoastkin #blueskyartshow #Canada

Rainy fall days are anything but quiet! Trees take a deep drink before winter. Birds bathe and preen, amphibians emerge to feed, and mammals pause to drink. After a long dry stretch, we’re grateful for rain! #newbrunswick #eastcoastkin #Canada #blueskyartshow

It's unfortunate that a city/city council would derail a successful event like this. Organizers would be smart to move it elsewhere.

Moose Mountain showing off its autumn colours — a perfect mirror of golds, reds, and blues under a bright October sky. 🍂🗻 #NewBrunswick #FallVibes #NaturePhotography #ExploreNB ##autumn #eastcoastkin #newbrunswick #Canada

Gold. Fiery reds. A landscape painted in autumn’s best—but beneath the beauty, signs of our severe #drought linger. Stream beds that should be flowing are dry, and the land feels thirsty even as the colors shine bright. 🍂🍁 #FallVibes #newbrunswick #eastcoastkin #blueskyartshow #Canada

The sweep of crimson peat bogs on Miscou Island in the Acadian Peninsula are stunning right now. 🍂✨

As temperatures dip, the sphagnum moss that carpets the peatlands transforms into brilliant shades of red and burgundy.

🍂 Staghorn Sumac in Fall 🍂
One of the showiest sights of autumn is the sumac (yes, it’s a native plant here in #NewBrunswick). Its leaves turn fiery shades of red and orange, and its clusters of berries provide an important winter food source for wildlife.

Signs of drought are everywhere in the Canadian Maritimes. This is McMaster Mill Falls, just outside of Greenwood, Nova Scotia. The first pic was taken this week, the second in Oct 2024. It's going to take a long time for rivers and lakes to recover once the rains do finally return.

You haven’t truly experienced the forest until you’ve stretched out on the ground and looked up. 🌲✨ The view is magical… just make sure you can get back up afterward! 😂

A beautiful morning! River valley fog and the landscape tinted gold. Fall is at its peak.

Have other tropical storms or #hurricanes ever been as close to each other as Imelda and Humberto?

YES!

Since 1966, when satellites first began tracking tropical systems from space, there have been nine other instances of named storms forming this close together.

We have a short cool down this week before we rapidly warm back up for the second half of the weekend and into next week. Summer hangs on going into October. No rain in sight. #nbwx #newbrunswick

This reporting reveals an incredible weakness behind the scenes with lab work. If the health authorities couldn't handle the added demand from pharmacies, we should be very concerned.
