Hurricane Fiona is about to make a hard landfall as a Category 3 hurricane in Nova Scotia. Tropical Depression Nine still remains disorganized in the Caribbean.
I am praying with you, Julie Patterson. I agree that people aren’t ready for this. I also pray that all will be safe … may God be with everyone at this time. 🙏🙏😔😔❤️
Give this man the Bill NYE the Science Guy award for best detailed meteorological analysis 👏🏽 Hoping everyone stays safe thru the coming days but appreciate the simple & precise explanations.
My sister lives in Nova Scotia… I pray for her safety….. I haven’t seen her since well before Covid-19. Love you Wendy. I hope you and Doug stay safe… will be worrying about you. ❤️❤️🤗🤗
Thank you David. Your coverage is too notch. Very tough to hear about these storms n systems. My anxiety is over the top. But you help by taking it slow and giving the knowledge needed for us to be prepared ready ahead of time. I truly appreciate you. Have a nice night and I will stay tuned.
@@drogusmaxwell6640 smart go to choice. This man is coverage plus and leaves nothing out. It's like a course class workshop listening to him. Have a nice weekend.
This man deserves a spot on live tv. Weathermen like him are much needed. Very informative. Thanks for all you do! One question though, what would cause Fiona to move at such a rapid pace? Never heard of a hurricane moving at over 40+ MPH. Thanks again.
I've never seen such a powerful system like Fiona hit right there.... I hope those people are going to be OK. It's a serious event that needed to be planned for so I hope they did.... Let's also not forget how amazing it is that we are able to get a halfway decent idea of where these storm systems are going to be in a week. you can never blame the weather folks for anything bad that happens because you have ample time to prepare and even though it's not clear exactly where the storm is going to go, we've got a pretty darn good idea and you need to keep your eyes and ears open

Who's this guy?! Haven't seen any meteorologist as good as him! This is the real deal, not just a weather man. He should make a RU-vid channel. If you read this comment, pls do lol. Greetings from Gainesville, FL.
David nuff thanks to you for keeping us informed on these hurricanes , we're hoping and praying that those people in that area ' NOVA SCOTIA will be protected from this disasters FONIA
I enjoyed watching the way this guy presented this forecast. He gave each model a run through. Granted, he was allotted the time to do so, while most weather people are not. But he makes this easy to understand.
@Spartan Yet most people still deny Climate Change. The storms are getting more frequent, stronger and traveling much further North. Global Warming feeds these storms.
it wasn't even that bad here in halifax. and they said it would be hurricane Dorian and Juan combined hurricane Juan took out 10s of thousands of trees and we lost power for over a week. not a single branch broke in my yard. storm surge was nowhere near what they called for. 🇨🇦
That was great,thank you. So much information, I think I might understand some of it. Half way through your hurricane lesson I’m saying wow this is complicated, I thought they were more just windy and messy. By the time you finished you agreed, yes this is complicated,lol. I hope we’re all ok at the end of this storm. Help your neighbors.
I've gotta say, having this level of detail in a weather infocast should be the default. I'm not a meteorologist, but having more information for the people that are enthusiasts or casual observers out of harms' way would definitely bring people into the field. Yes, I know that's not the most important thing at this point. I'm just giving props where props are due.
amazing reporting!!!! Thank you im watching this closely now i might be in the path of the leftovers of this. I just randomly caught this and havent paid attention to the weather much.
Just hanging out here on western Nova Scotia. We should avoid the worst part here, but I am worried about family in Halifax and NFLD. This could be our once a decade storm, hope things aren't as bad as they look to be.
@@beachsisters5678 hope it doesn't get any worse for you. I've been lucky so far here in Greenwood, power has gone a few times now but keeps coming back.
Wow! Your 1st time experiencing a tropical storm?😳 I hope u got ur emergency water, batteries tin food, candles etc and put up storm shutters . Stay safe y'all!!
It is astonishing that the remnants of Fiona will interact with the S.W. of Greenland, and later possibly E. Ellesmere Island. Could that be a latitude record in the W. Atlantic and those straits?
The hurricane that affected me most near Weston FL(Western Ft Lauderdale/Hollywood) was Wilma in 05. It followed the same course, made landfall near the Florida panhandle and then was driven back south by a powerful cold front. It was October 31st.
i live in ns, cape breton is probably getting nailed right now especially the highland national park, but in kentville ns its not that bad, its pouring but the wind is blowing hard on and off, its not a steady wind , im pissed because i was hoping the power would go out in the industrial park so we could go home but noope...
I call BS on adding Fiona's storm speed to wind speed. Also he forgot to mention that if Ian hit's Florida's panhandle That coldfront will knock it down significantly.
As a resident of a Caribbean island, I feel for persons Way up north there in Canada who have probably never experienced a tropical storm like Fiona please take all precautions. Move to higher ground if u live somewhere that may get storm surges and stay safe folks. Godspeed!
Florida girl here. Hurricanes are by definition storms of the tropics. How on earth to we get a Cat 3 hitting Nova Scotia? Where do they send their boats to keep those safe? That is their livelihood. How do we get the people safe - those are their lives! They are trained from birth to handle different kinds of weather dangers - hurricanes should not need to be one of them! Praying for all of those in the path of Fiona while she does some pretty crazy stuff. However, fair play: looks like Florida is going to take a hit. I only pray that those that saw Matthew a few years ago don't get another direct hit: they are very much still recovering. Rebuilding a town from the ground up takes time.
Ian is the name of my youngest son, who is 23. Even if nothing else gets him to pay attention to the weather, this certainly will. He lives in Vancouver, Washington State, so he will not be affected by this. However, he'll watch it anyway because his name's on it!
Not really feeling this weatherman's vibe... I don't think he really knows what's going on. I think he needs sleep, or something. JMO. Stay safe y'all.
Just how exactly does a storms forward movement speed somehow increase the overall windspeed? Never heard of that before from any meteorologist I wouldn't think that just because a storm is moving at 40+mph, that you take sustained winds of 125+ and just add on another 40mph..
Yes, forward speed added to wind speed matters. A fast moving storm can be higher cat than winds in storm indicate. Hurricane of 38 was cat 3 but forward speed added in made it devastating cat 5
Surely under the American version, with Ian staying in the Gulf longer, wouldn't it be a level 4-5, rather than a level 3, like under the European model?
Is Fiona a "superstorm" like Sandy was? I don't mean is it comparable to Sandy, I mean is it the same type of storm, the same phenomenon of a hurricane combined with a nor'easter?
