Homeowners affected by historic rainfall and flooding in Nova Scotia are gutting their basements and waiting to hear back from insurance adjusters to plan out their next steps.

In the Lower Sackville area, some residents saw the water along the Little Sackville River rise and sweep away belongings and damage infrastructure in a matter of just a few hours.

Heather Comeau, who lives in the basement of the same building, was able to rescue her cat, Taz, as her home filled with about four feet of water.“I already kind of knew what I was coming home to. I was just trying to come home to get my cat,” Comeau said. He said affected residents can start the insurance process by contacting an agent and documenting damage with pictures and available paperwork.
