Post-Tropical Cyclone Lee Discussion NWS National Hurricane Center Miami 500 PM AST Sat Sep 16 2023 The core of Lee briefly moved across Long Island in Western Nova Scotia within the past hour or so. Satellite images and surface observations indicate that the center is now over the Bay of Fundy. KEY MESSAGES: 1. Tropical storm conditions and coastal flooding are occurring across portions of coastal Maine and Atlantic Canada, and will continue to spread northward within the Tropical Storm Warning areas. The strong winds are leading to downed trees and power outages. 2. Heavy rainfall from Lee could produce localized urban and small stream flooding in portions of eastern Maine and New Brunswick. 3. Dangerous surf and life-threatening rip currents will continue to affect the U.S. East Coast, Atlantic Canada, Bermuda, the Bahamas, the Turks and Caicos Islands, Hispaniola, and Puerto Rico through Sunday. #PostTropicalStormLee
