Potential impacts for the Maritime provinces with hurricane Lee. - Allister AaldersHurricane Lee to impact Atlantic Canada this weekend | SaltWireThere’s still some uncertainty around what exactly hurricane Lee is going to do when it reaches Nova Scotia, but it doesn’t look at this point like anyone will experience the conditions like those when Fiona tore through the province last year.
SaltWire weather specialist Allister Aalders said the worst area for storm surges will be along the South Shore and up the Bay of Fundy, with heights of three metres Friday and up to six metres Saturday, with wave heights of up to 12 metres.Strong winds at post-tropical storm strength will stick around for an extended period in Yarmouth, Digby, Shelburne and possibly Queens County.
He said the storm will grow in size as it weakens to post-tropical status, with winds of 30-50 km/h in the rest of the province, and gusts peaking at 60-80 and maybe 90 km/h.“It will be post-tropical so it loses its tropical characteristics…. The field of impacts will be wider but probably not as severe as a hurricane,” Aalders said.
