Leslie (September 2012)
Newfoundland and Labrador bore the brunt of Hurricane Leslie’s impact. The storm brought torrential rain and strong winds, leading to widespread power outages, especially in St. John's.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center began monitoring a tropical depression on September 12 that eventually became Tropical Storm Fiona on September 15, 2022. The storm increased in intensity as it moved through the southern Atlantic attaining category 4 status.
Prior to making landfall in Nova Scotia, Hurricane Fiona was downgraded to a post-tropical cyclone. Despite the change, it was one of the most impactful storms ever to hit Atlantic Canada.
