As per news report of BBC, the Canadian Hurricane Centre warned that Fiona - expected to reach Canada's shores by Saturday morning - could be "a historic, extreme event". Authorities have warned of potential coastal flooding, power outages and dangerous driving conditions. At least eight people in Fiona's path through the Caribbean have died. Canadian forecasters said late on Friday that Fiona - now a category three storm - was packing maximum sustained winds of up to 120 mph (195km/h), though this is projected to decrease as it makes landfall.
