The Environment Canada warning says the Inverness County area can expect over 30 centimetres of snow to accumulate by the end of Wednesday,

The warning says heavy rain is expected in on the southeastern and eastern shore.

Inverness County is expected to get the worst of the wet Wednesday weather, according to Environment Canada.

'It would be significantly less than in (hurricane Dorian) last year,' said Victor Oulton, president of the Nova Scotia Federation of Agriculture.

Despite warnings from provincial and municipal authorities, some residents still made their way to the shore to watch the waves come in.

Two peaks of the storm are expected Tuesday evening and Wednesday late morning.

Officials with Environment and Climate Change Canada say that hurricane Teddy will not be as bad as 2019's hurricane Dorian.

The storm was churning northward in Caribbean today, with maximum wind speeds over 200 kilometres per hour.

Rain will likely begin over the southwestern parts of Nova Scotia Saturday night before spreading across the province later in the evening.

One farmer says he'd like to be irrigating his crops for about 90 minutes every day, but with his water supply so low he has reduced that to a total of 90 minutes a week.
