1 A summary of recent notable ET events over Eastern Canada IWET4 - May 2012 Chris Fogarty Canadian Hurricane Center
2 Canadian Hurricane Center Response Zone On average, 1 or 2 storms directly affect Canadian land regions each year. Another 2 or 3 typically threaten our offshore waters.
3 Saxby Gale Oct 1869 Great Nova Scotia Cyclone Aug 1873 Galveston Hurricane Sept 1900 Great August Gale 1927 Hazel Oct 1954 Edna Sept 1954 Escuminac Disaster Jun 1959 Beth Aug 1971 Juan Sept 2003 Igor Sept 2010 Severe Tropical Cyclone Related Events in Canada
4 Storms affecting Canadian territory in 2011 Page 4
5 Page 5 Track Map of Hurricane Irene
6 High-resolution wind imagery from SAR (Canadian RadarSat) Page 6
7 Impacts/Notes Heavy rainfall in southern Quebec caused flooding on already-saturated soil Some bridge/road washouts 1 fatality Enhanced winds due to topography and frontogenesis Broken tree limbs and power disruptions First heavy impact of a TC in Quebec since Frances in 2004 (primarily rainfall event) and Hugo in 1989 (primarily wind event) Identified opportunities for improvement in Operations regarding inter-provincial/national communication Page 7
8 Track Map of Hurricane Katia Page 8
9 Opportunistic SAR high-resolution wind overpass by Canadian RadarSat Page 9
10 Impacts/Notes Large swell near Halifax, Nova Scotia - Sept 9 (breaking ~12-15ft / 3-4m) Heavy surf along southern coast of Nova Scotia / Newfoundland created hazard to public Special alert issued for eastern Newfoundland for rapid tide effect only the second ever official alert from CHC for the TC-induced wave (first was during Alex 2004) water level fluctuations did occur, but fortunately not at high tide Page 10
11 Cold wake from slow-moving Hurricane Katia Track Map of Hurricane Maria Page 11
12 Impacts/Notes No significant impact over land Particular forecast challenge with respect to wind field expansion during ET / limited wind field data Hurricane Warning did not verify low-end tropical storm conditions observed Operationally declared a hurricane landfall reduced to TS during off-season Page 12
13 Page 13 Track Map of Hurricane Ophelia
14 Heavy rainfall impact from Ophelia Culvert dislodged (a recent replacement after Igor in 2010) (southeastern Newfoundland) Heavy runoff-induced rockslide Page 14
15 Forecast philosophy for Ophelia In the wake of Hurricane Maria (~ 3 weeks prior) the Centre was conservative with forecasts Maintained a Tropical Storm Watch throughout event TS conditions were observed Did not want to over-warn this event Turned out to be a good balance - an example of applying discretion
16 Another opportunistic SAR scan capturing wind field early in the ET process Page 16
17 Other Notes from 2011 season Page 17
18 IN ADDITION TO TROPICAL STORM GERT, WE ARE MONITORING A COMPACT LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION ABOUT 450 KM SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF HALIFAX WHICH HAS BEEN SPAWNING CONVECTION INTERMITTENTLY OVERNIGHT AND EARLY THIS MORNING. SUNDAY EVENING'S ASCAT PASS SHOWED A SMALL BAND OF 25 TO 30 KNOT WINDS ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THIS CIRCULATION. THE CHC WILL CONTINUE MONITORING THIS AREA FOR STRONG WINDS. THE MARINE FORECAST FOR EAST SCOTIAN SLOPE AND LAURENTIAN FAN HAS BEEN AMENDED TO REFLECT THIS "WANNABE" TROPICAL CYCLONE. Similar structure / pattern to Unnamed TS (#12) about 2 weeks later Wannabe cyclone of mid Aug 2011 These types of systems appear in this region about once every other season TS Gert
19 TS Sean / Front Nov 2011 As in 2010, some late-season TCs are tapped-into by farreaching cold fronts to the north which can raise flooding potential GOES WV imagery TPW 100 mm (4 ) < 24 hrs flooding Halifax Nova Scotia
