Lee's Landfall: US-Canada Border Braces for Impact

Post-tropical cyclone Lee, previously a Category 5 hurricane, approached Eastern Maine and Canada, causing powerful winds, tree damage, and widespread power outages. Coastal towns in the region had prepared in advance, but anxiety grew as the storm closed in.

Fishermen expressed concern over the storm's impact on the vulnerable lobster population.
