Hurricane Earl, 185 miles from New York City and Boston
Heavy rainfall and high winds are reported along the US coast from Virginia Beach to Atlantic City. Vacationers on Long Island and Cape Cod are disappointed as plans are changed. Beaches are closed or closing. Boats brought in and buildings shuttered.
Earl has been downgraded to a Category 1 hurricane which does not mean the danger is over.
“Cape Cod and the islands of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket face the most serious threat from Earl, expected to hit late Friday and early Saturday.
“We still think it will be a hurricane when it passes by Cape Cod,” said James Franklin, the National Hurricane Center’s chief forecaster.” Fox News
There is no change in the forecast for New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and PEI. Earl is expected to hit landfall near Metaghan, NS and proceed through to Moncton and Western Prince Edward Island.
Environment Canada has not changed its issued Tropical Storm Warning, Wind Warning and heavy rainfall warning.
Heavy rain…Amounting to 40 to 70 millimetres will likely fall over portions of the Maritimes on Saturday as Earl tracks across the region….With southern and Central New Brunswick and Northwestern Prince Edward Island being the most likely areas to receive these amounts. Over many areas of the Maritimes very heavy downpours are likely…With 25 millimetres or more possible in one hour. Environment Canada
