Search continues for 4 people missing after record rainfall in Nova Scotia

A flooded Nova Scotia field was the focus of an intense weekend search for four people, including two children, lost after rushing waters caused by torrential rains swamped the vehicles they were travelling in.

“We are talking about flood waters that have zero visibility, so that definitely makes searching difficult where divers have to do a search according to touch,” Tremblay said in an interview. Will Mounce said his 97-year-old aunt, Irene Harvey, requires daily visits from personal care workers for everything from medication to meals.

His uncle, Howard Harvey, said the flooded brook knocked out the foundation of his barn, which held decades worth of farm equipment and memories.“I have never seen a storm like that,” he said. “Just so long lasting. I don’t know how many hours of rain we had.” He said 25 bridges had been affected across the province, with 19 damaged and six completely destroyed.
