CBC Meteorologist Ryan Snoddon has the latest on what the Maritimes can expect and when.

Hurricane Lee will bring a risk of coastal flooding on Saturday, especially along the Atlantic coastline of Nova Scotia.

With the trees in full leaf, power outages are very likely, with widespread wind gusts of 60 to 90 kilometres per hour expected across the Maritimes. The long duration of this storm will increase the chances of outages Saturday and Saturday night. During high tide times, the storm surge combined with waves may push water levels up to one metre above the usual high tide.Tropical moisture surges in Nova Scotia ahead of Hurricane LeeMeteorologist Ryan Snoddon says Lee could make landfall as a post-tropical storm with tropical storm-force winds at about 110 km per hour, which he notes is just a little bit less than the force of a Category 1 storm.Friday will be a quiet day across the region.
