Road washouts across the Valley after flash floods.

Some weather stations are reporting over 120 millimetres of rain fell in a span of five hours late Thursday afternoon into the evening.

An emergency alert was issued around 8:30 p.m. for Digby, Annapolis, Kings and Hants counties.

There are numerous rural roads that shutdown due to flash flooding, the full extent of the damage will be seen Friday morning.

Reports of evacuations after flood waters rushed in in towns like Wolfville, Kentville and Hantsport.

In Kentville, the ballfield where the senior Wildcats play was underwater, cars were left behind in parking lots.

Sections of Highway 101 were slowed down, but many rural roads in the Valley are affected.

Nova Scotia’s emergency management office activated their provincial coordination centre.

The Department of Public Works had crews out all night, and many will remain through Friday, firefighters have also been hard at work helping people with flooded basements.

It’s the second time in less than a year that flooding has wreaked havoc on parts of our province.

You’re reminded to avoid driving through flood waters.
