  1. A clip of the damage survey. Will probably upload the longer one tomorrow. New personal records for low pressure (941.9mb) and wind measured (65.3mph) Great chase. Time to track Ian.

  3. If Ian could just slow down a little more I think I could get there. It’ll be close. Ugh. What a chase in NS. Damage all the way back to New Brunswick.
  4. Trees down all the way into New Brunswick. What an event.
  5. Trees down all the way into New Brunswick.
  6. Significant wind damage near and west of Arisaig. Surveying now.
  7. Passing through the northern shoreline of NS and there is substantial damage. Sparsely populated, low signal.
  8. Passing through ground zero for wind and there is substantial damage.
  9. Causeway held up fine. On my way to the northern shore of NS to survey the area.
  10. Yeah this was a big hit. We’ll see if folks consider it a benchmark storm. Hope you get power back soon.
  11. With Hermine and Ian on the board, my forecast continues to look good. If Ian does become a major, think I’ll be in striking distance of verifying the hurricane forecast as we shift to homebrew season in early October. Peak Season Forecast (Aug 20-Oct 20)Named Storms: 10 (6)Hurricanes: 6 (3)Major Hurricanes: 4 (1)
  12. Still gusting over TS force, but the wind is on the decline. Wouldn’t be surprised if we got minimal cane gusts this afternoon during the strongest. There were some hotel rattling gusts. At any rate, expecting to start making my way home tomorrow and will see about driving through ground zero in NS. Always appreciate the support, especially from my friend @MillvilleWx. It’s a long shot, but maybe I can get a crack at Ian next week…
  13. Thought I posted here earlier but I recorded a peak gust of 65.3mph, with multiple 60+ gusts and perhaps sustained wind over 50 for a period.
  14. Recorded new personal pressure (941.9mb) and wind (65.3mph) records. Still going here.
  15. I think they did and the north shore of NS really took some big winds. I’m getting the strongest winds yet here because it’s coming off the bay now after center passage to my east.
  16. Morning survey. Strongest winds are here now.
  17. I think that’s going to end up right. Very impressive storm, maybe even a benchmark for Canada, but not sure how destructive inland winds have been yet. 1938 literally wiped out millions of trees. Surge and wave damage looks high end. I’m getting it good here but other places are getting obliterated along the surge prone coastline. Water is almost always the headliner.
  18. Yikes. Glad I stayed away from the surge zone. Winds have picked up substantially on the back side here. Recorded a minimum pressure 941.9mb.
