Hurricane Lee's Growing Threat to New England and Canada Raises Concerns

Hurricane Lee, currently a Category 3 storm, poses a growing threat to New England and Atlantic Canada. The storm's massive size and slow movement make its coastal impacts significant, with hurricane-force winds extending up to 115 miles from the center. While the exact timing and extent of Lee's impact on the US and Canada remain uncertain, high wind gusts, heavy rainfall, and storm surge are expected. Bermuda is already experiencing heavy rainfall and high surf, with dangerous rip currents along the southeastern US coast. Lee's track is expected to become clearer on Thursday, with the storm potentially weakening to a Category 1 as it passes near Bermuda.
