WOCN31 CWHX 251800
Information statement issued by the canadian hurricane centre
Of Environment Canada at 3.00 PM ADT Thursday 25 September
2008.

This is the only planned statement at this time.

A complex weather pattern developing in the southwestern Atlantic
Is poised to set up heavy rain and strong winds for portions of
The Maritimes and southeastern Québec over the weekend.

A frontal low pressure system southeast of the Carolinas and a
tropical disturbance northeast of the dominican republic both have
the potential to develop into tropical storms over the next day or
so. The us national hurricane center has been closely monitoring
Both of these systems for any tropical development but as of early
Thursday afternoon neither had developed into a tropical storm.

Regardless of the exact tropical nature of these systems most
computer models for the last fews days have indicated that one
Of these lows will push heavy rain into southeastern Canada on the
Weekend ... With 50-100 mm being a reasonable expectation. There is
also the potential for strong winds with this system as it arrives.

Since neither low has been declared to be tropical we will not
Issue dedicated bulletins at this time. However the Atlantic storm
prediction centre issued special weather statements last night
For all three maritime provinces announcing the increasing
Certainty that heavy rain is to be expected. It is still premature
for specifics to be given so the public in southeastern Canada is
advised to monitor forecasts by this centre and the regional storm
prediction centres for updates on this weather situation.

So it's TS Kyle now AND a nor'easter double whammy. Maybe triple, we
shall see.
