Climate
Cooks Brook has a Humid Continental climate, unlike most of Nova Scotia the Musquodoboit Valley is not quite as affected by the ocean. This is due to its inland location. This leads to more snowfall and cooler temperatures in the winter as well as hotter summers. The Musquodoboit Valley is one of the warmest locations in the summer with average summer highs between 22° and 28° degrees.
