“Powerful” Hurricane Teddy Strengthens To Cat 4 With Canada In Crosshairs; Tropical Depression 22 Forms In Gulf<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is closely\u00a0monitoring<\/a>\u00a0“powerful” Hurricane Teddy as it continues to churn in the Atlantic Ocean and could make landfall in Canada early next week.<\/p>\n

As of 0500 ET Friday,\u00a0Teddy is generating\u00a0130 mph winds (Category 4) while\u00a0moving\u00a0northwest at 12 mph and located about 900 miles southeast of Bermuda.\u00a0The system is expected to make landfall near\u00a0Nova Scotia, Canada, as a Category 2, on Tuesday\/Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Chief\u00a0meteorologist\u00a0Cindy Day of\u00a0SaltWire Network<\/a>, a\u00a0Canadian newspaper, said Teddy “would come into\u00a0Canadian waters late Monday night, and we’d start to get impacted Tuesday afternoon in Nova Scotia, Wednesday in Newfoundland.”<\/p>\n

“It’s still quite a distance out and a lot of things could happen between now and then.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

“It looks like it’s going to intensify to a 4 maybe by the end of the afternoon (Friday), so it’s a powerful system. The danger with this system is that it’s not tracking over or close to land. When systems do that, the outer bands \u2026 when they start to brush up against coastline or land, it weakens the storm system. There’s no land around. It’s out in the mid-Atlantic and it’s just churning and the sea surface temperatures are warmer than normal. So right now, there’s nothing to weaken this system,” said Day.\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Day said some weather models have Teddy taking a\u00a0northwest turn before\u00a0heading for\u00a0Nova Scotia, indicating landfall could be between\u00a0Yarmouth and Halifax.<\/p>\n

“That’s how I see the path unfolding, but again a little shift in the system over the Labrador Sea and the high coming in from Quebec and that could get squeezed further to the left or further to right. It looks like there’s going to be some impact, but how significant and where landfall is going to be \u2013 it’s a little bit too soon to say just yet.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
