One of the strongest storms ever to hit Canada slammed into Nova Scotia’s coastline early Saturday, leaving hundreds of thousands of people without power.
Former Hurricane Fiona made landfall early on Saturday morning over Guysborough county on the northeast corner of mainland Nova Scotia, Canada’s weather service said. There were maximum sustained winds of almost 81 mph, while peak gusts of over 100 mph were detected, it added.
It is the lowest pressured land falling storm on record in Canada, according to the Canadian Hurricane Center, which also described hurricane-force gusts battering the area. More than 40% of the population in Nova Scotia is affected by power outages, according to utility company Nova Scotia power.

Trudeau will just leave the lights off to combat it.
Glad I don’t live in Houston anymore
I’m sure Truedorp will get a pass. You can bet if the Tories were in charge in Canada, the press would already be jumping on them.
You mean to tell me that windmills don’t thrive in a hurricane?
Hope Rick and Marty, et al are ok.
Hopefully this Fiona won’t do as much damage to Canada as the last one did to Hewlett Packard.
Greenland is about to receive a butt load of snow. Godthaab (Nuuk) temperature at sea level is 40F. Anything above the snow line is about to get multiples of 10 feet of snow.
Of course, any natural catastrophe is caused by global warming.
Remember, before it, we had no problems, ever!
They might as well get used to not having power. That’s the future.
Hmmmm... and the hurricane is striking just where Oak Island is? Could it be directed there by extraterREStrial beings? Ancient astronaut theorists say “Yes!”
“On record”....how many REAL records do they have of past “climate”
I hope everyone is okay. Prayers up.
In California, conservatives have been without power for decades.
But but but … global warming 'n' stuff. The liberals told us all the snow and ice had melted in Greenland. They wouldn't lie to us, would they?
EV drivers SOL.
Soak island. Holy shamoly, it might churn up the shoreline and reveal more wood chunks and rust. Sorry I meant Bobby Dazzlers.
“Top pocket finds!”
