"Severe Flooding in Nova Scotia Leaves Four Missing and Cancels Canadian Superbike Round"

Four people, including two children, are missing in Nova Scotia, Canada, after torrential rains caused severe flooding. The region experienced three months' worth of rain in just 24 hours, leaving thousands of homes without electricity. Roads have been washed away, bridges weakened, and a state of emergency declared in some areas. The floods are the latest extreme weather event in northeast Canada, with recent wildfires and flooding in the US. Scientists believe such extreme rainfall is consistent with the changes expected in a warming world.
