With heavy rainfall and storm surges, hurricane "Fiona" has caused damage along Canada's east coast. A state of emergency has been declared in some areas. The coastal town of Port aux Basques in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador was badly affected, where several houses were torn away by high waves. The police had previously instructed residents to leave the danger zones.
Also in the province of Nova Scotia, the storm covered roofs, collapsed power poles and trees and flooded streets. Nova Scotia Prime Minister Tim Houston spoke of an "incredible number" of downed trees on Saturday afternoon (local time). Almost three quarters of the residents are without electricity. Houston said it was too early to estimate the extent of the damage.
As a so-called post-tropical storm, "Fiona" hit land in Nova Scotia early on Saturday morning (local time) with wind speeds of up to 148 kilometers per hour, as the Canadian hurricane center announced.
Hundreds of thousands of people in Nova Scotia temporarily lost power on Saturday morning, according to electricity provider Nova Scotia Power. According to the local electricity provider, there were also tens of thousands of outages in the neighboring province of Prince Edward Island.
"Fiona" passed the British overseas territory of Bermuda on Friday as a hurricane in the second strongest category. “Fiona” made landfall in Puerto Rico last weekend as a category one of five hurricane, causing flooding and severe damage.
After Hurricane Fiona passed through, the next strong storm formed in the Caribbean. He was christened "Ian" and was traveling in the central Caribbean on Saturday with sustained wind speeds of up to 75 kilometers per hour, as the US hurricane center NHC announced. "Ian" is expected to gain strength and become a hurricane late Sunday (local time) or Monday night near the Cayman Islands. The tropical storm is expected to pass Jamaica on Sunday and approach the Cayman Islands and western Cuba. The expected large amounts of rain could cause flash floods.
For the middle of next week, the hurricane center warned of storm surges, hurricane-force storms and heavy rainfall in the west of the US state of Florida. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis declared a state of emergency as a precaution and called on the population to take precautions.
