"Hurricane Lee Threatens New England and Eastern Canada, Forcing Evacuations and Disrupting Coastal Activities"

Hurricane Lee, a Category 1 storm, is heading towards New England and eastern Canada, forcing fishermen to retreat to harbors. The storm is expected to weaken slightly to a tropical storm before hitting Nova Scotia, with winds still reaching 40-65 mph and heavy rains likely to cause power outages and coastal flooding. Massachusetts and Maine have declared a state of emergency, and utility workers from Tennessee are preparing to assist with potential power outages. This is a rare occurrence, as hurricanes rarely reach this far north in the Atlantic.
