As Hurricane Lee continues its path towards the Northeast, coastal communities in New England and Atlantic Canada are bracing themselves for the storm’s arrival. It is predicted that the storm will bring heavy rain, strong winds, and high surf to the region, resulting in potential power outages and localized flooding.
Tracking northward, Hurricane Lee is expected to weaken, but its large size means that New England will still experience the effects of this formidable system. Southern areas of New England will start to feel tropical storm conditions by Friday afternoon, causing concerns over power disruptions and localized flooding.
Before reaching the North American coast, Hurricane Lee had already caused power outages in Bermuda. It is anticipated that the island will continue to be affected by the storm until Friday morning. In anticipation of the storm’s potential impacts, a combination of hurricane and tropical storm alerts have been issued for many New England coastal communities.
Nova Scotia is also preparing for the storm’s arrival. Provincial and wildlife parks will be closed on Friday as a precautionary measure.
The heaviest rainfall is predicted to occur in Maine on Saturday, with neighboring states also experiencing significant rainfall. Rhode Island to northern Maine may receive up to an inch of rain, while areas spanning from Massachusetts to central Maine could see anywhere from 1 to 2 inches. Eastern Maine could experience even heavier downpours, with 2 to 4 inches of rain expected and localized amounts reaching up to 6 inches.
Local authorities and emergency services are urging residents to take necessary precautions, such as securing outdoor furniture and making sure storm drains are clear to minimize the risk of flooding. Residents are advised to stay informed by monitoring weather updates and following any evacuation orders or advisories issued by local officials.
As Hurricane Lee approaches, residents of coastal New England and Atlantic Canada are staying vigilant and prepared, hoping to weather the storm and minimize its impact on their communities.
