Tropical Storm Kyle - severe weather warning for New Brunswick/Nova Scotia.

Just back from a drive not far from my place and the fury of the Atlantic is evident...waves are crashing on the shore a good 10ft in the air...lots of rain on the roads too...

Looks like the eye is tracking right up the valley, up to about the Black Rock/Halls Harbour area before jinkin' over your folks way.  Other than being a little breezy, there is SFA happening here in Shearwater, where it is normally breezy anyways.

I hope it blows itself out before it makes NB as much as possible and that nobody suffers loss of life or property down on the south shore and up along Digby county, which probably will be the worst of the areas hit, what with the high tide combined with it.

I just noticed the track has it going directly over home too (Summerside PEI).  It shouldn't be much of anything then though. 
 
Be a nice night for campin' at Cape Split!
 
Keep me posted, one and all!  No rain here in Afghanistan, but more than enough at home (though it helps keep the well filled)


 
Here's the latest from CTV...seems like it is loosing steam...hope that helps ease your concern some MMR...

They should be good-to-go Rockpainting-type ... it seems to have dumped most of the water well east of us.

Had the troops out this morning for their 1st work-up of the fall BFT cycle, lots of water out in Argonaut, couple tree branchs down ... nothing very serious around here though.

The rain has even stopped already ... finally ...

Of course, you could just be in the "eye of the storm".    >:D

I don't think the eye is that big.  It has been nice out since I got up at 0630 (its 0915 now), and the forecast is saying sun for the rest of the day.

And you are going to believe the word of a "Weatherman"?
 
They predicted "sun" for here today.  Unfortunately, they failed to mention the thick layer of clouds in between here and the sun (during daylight hours).  ;D
 
The parents (who live in the Middleton area) said all they really got from it was wind. Apparently Shelburne took a s*** kicking though.
