Tropical Cyclone,Canada: After causing heavy damage across parts of the Caribbean last week, Hurricane Fiona moved north toward Eastern Canada, making landfall this weekend as a post-tropical cyclone. The downgraded storm still packed heavy rain and winds, gusting up to 110 mph, driving storm surges and knocking down trees and power lines. Hundreds of thousands remain without power as emergency crews and utility workers work to clear debris and rebuild lines. Damage is calculated in billions, while insured losses are near 900 million dollars.
