watching this cold front here, that is going to be skirting through the region tonight and ushering in a west to northwest flow, so that is going to be some slightly cooler air on tap for saturday, so still low 20s in most cases, but those west to northwest cases will keep things cooler. Here, temperatures are going to be more like mid to light teens. There's an isolated shower chances tomorrow for eastern mainland and through inverness. Sunday, some sunny periods on tap, no questions about it, and we are going to be seeing the winds in through the east-northeast here, and a bit of an on-line shore on the eastern coastline but a couple of low 20s not out of the question. We'll have to be fire safe this weekend but good news in terms of that rain. We'll break it down in full details in just a few minutes. >> Amy: we certainly need it, don't mewe, ryan? >> Ryan: yes. >> Amy: see you in a few minutes. Thank you, ryan. >> Ryan: thank you. >> Amy: shaina luck has the story of an anapolis valley town trying to do its best for people with disabilities. >> Hi. I'm anna marie corcum. I have a twin with disabilities. I have cerebral palsy. I've been working in this store for two years now, and I'm an athlete. >> Reporter: of all the places that anna marie corcum goes, there's one place that she can't go: city hall. >> A little frustrating. >> Reporter: back in 2016, the province created a goal of being completely accessible by 2030. >> I'd like to say it would be a sigh of relief because we've been waiting for a long time. >> Reporter: last fall, auditors helped the city audit its buildings. >> The audit pointed out a lot of small things and big things that we needed to change. >> Reporter: last fall, the council decided to list a few things that needed to change. The corcum family has seen promises failed before. >> Too much talk and not enough walk. >> Reporter: kentville has decided to move ahead any way. >> I don't know that we're going to make it but we're going to try. >> Reporter: to anna, it would make a big difference. >> It would really help my life. >> Amy: the louisville legion is now delivering meals to people in the community as needs rise -- lewisberg region is now delivering meals to people in the community as needs rise. >> Reporter: fishing is the big economic driver. The only school closed in 2017 along with several businesses. It's made it more difficult for the people who live here. >> Not everybody has vehicles. There's only limited access for groceries and whatnot. There's a general store. Obviously, the price has to go up because they need to survive, as well. >> Reporter: affordability has been made a little bit easier through a project initiated by the town's legion. It started in april and will continue through december. >> We run monday through wednesday. We cook -- with our team, we cook about 30 hours and pack

and deliver about 20. >> Reporter: the programme serves people in kentville. >> We have heard people going days, sometimes weeks, without a proper meal. They can't get to -- they can't get food, be it financial, accessibility, transportation. >> Reporter: the programme has helped left morale among residents. >> It's bringing the community together, which I think has been lacking in the last number of years. Yeah, I think it's really bringing people together in a good way. >> Reporter: meals are delivered every second wednesday, and no financial or personal questions will be asked for those interested in signing up. >> Amy: well, it is considered a one-in-30 million catch. A nova scotia fisherman caught a rare yellow lobster off picto county this week. >> I just said whoa, holy moly. Look down this trap here. I was fishing off of picto island. It just stood out, a bright yellow lobster. Something I'd never seen before. First things was first. Everybody had their cell phones out, and half a dozen pictures or more were taken. Yeah, just sat there and admired it for the next few minutes and carried on, of course. >> Reporter: where is the lobster now? >> It's been turned in. It's going to go to the northumberland fisheries museum. It remains there for the summer for the public can see, and then as far as I know, they release it at a later date. >> Reporter: how big was the lobster, would it have been? >> It was in the keep range. Female, healthy, just small. >> Reporter: just yellow. >> Yeah, bright yellow. Yeah, it was. >> Amy: pretty neat.

>>> Well, a halifax school bus driver was recognised for his quick thinking while driving a school bus last week. Terrie brown was presented with a community hero award and a 500 cheque. >> I just did it the best I could do it, and the outcome was what I was hoping it would be. >> When you saw what was happening before you, you were able to go from 100 kilometres an hour to zero in 100 metres. >> I happened to notice, I glanced, and I seen this dump truck hit the guardrail on the overpass, so as soon as I seen him at the guardrail, for some reason, the truck took a hard right right away, and when he did, he went down the embankment. First thing I did, I said was anybody hurt? Everyone said no, no, they were okay, but they had their heads out to the s trying to figure out what was going on. >> The kids have been excellent. We used this incident as an example for our kids to be super respectful to our bus drivers. We need to get home safely, and if the bus drivers are focused on the road, they can make the necessary stops and take the necessary actions to keep them safe. >> I didn't think it was going to be like thi with you I am a person of -- you know, it was quite an ordeal.
