Scattered showers are moving across parts of Nova Scotia this morning, providing some relief to a province still struggling with its worst wildfire season on record.

The forecast is calling for steady rain tonight and into Saturday, but two major wildfires continue to burn out of control—one northwest of downtown Halifax and another larger fire in the southwestern corner of the province.
