FIONA Land Hazards

• WIND - Gale-force and storm-force winds are expected to continue across portions of Atlantic Canada through early Sunday.
• RAINFALL - Fiona is forecast to produce 1 to 2 inches (25 to 50 mm) of rainfall across portions of Atlantic Canada, with storm total maxima as high as 10 inches (250 mm) across Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and western Newfoundland. Flooding is expected, some of which could be significant.
• STORM SURGE - A dangerous storm surge is expected to produce coastal flooding in portions of Atlantic Canada in areas of onshore winds. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and destructive waves.
• SURF - Swells generated by Fiona are affecting Atlantic Canada, the northeastern United States coast, and Bermuda. The swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.

Post-Tropical Cyclone FIONA Forecast Discussion

Post-Tropical Cyclone Fiona Discussion Number  42
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL072022
500 PM AST Sat Sep 24 2022
 
Fiona remains a large and potent extratropical low pressure system.
Even though the maximum winds have decreased just below
hurricane-force, ASCAT data and surface observations show that
Fiona has a very large wind field.  The initial wind speed is
estimated to be 60 kt.
 
Fiona has slowed down significantly, and the system is now moving
northeastward at 7 kt.  A faster north to north-northeast motion is
expected, taking the center of the system across Labrador tonight
and early Sunday.  The NHC track forecast is similar to the
previous one.
 
Since the tropical warnings have been discontinued for Atlantic
Canada, this is the last NHC advisory on Fiona.  For information on
this system, see forecasts issued by Environment Canada at
https://weather.gc.ca/.  Additional information can be found in
High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service, under
AWIPS header NFDHSFAT1, WMO header FZNT01 KWBC, and online
at ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFAT1.php
 
 
Key Messages:
 
1. Fiona is forecast to continue to affect portions of Atlantic
Canada through early Sunday, and significant impacts from high
winds, storm surge, and heavy rainfall are expected.
 
2. Heavy rains from Fiona are expected to continue to impact
portions of Atlantic Canada into Sunday. This rainfall is expected
to produce flooding, some of which could be significant.
 
3. Large swells generated by Fiona are expected to cause
life-threatening surf and rip current conditions along the coast of
the northeast United States, Bermuda, and Atlantic Canada during
the next couple of days.
