Hurricane #Melissa is at the thresholds of what's meteorologically possible on Earth. 300km/h winds and 892mb will be the strongest landfalling hurricane on record for the Atlantic basin 😟 @weathernetwork

#TropicalStorm #Erin has formed in the far east Atlantic! 5th named storm of the year could be the 1st major hurricane by the weekend as it passes north of the Antilles' Islands. Way too far out to know if/any impacts to the US/CA East coast. @weathernetwork

3-4 PM severe thunderstorm prime time. Strong winds + hail biggest impacts. Tornadoes possible, but not a slam dunk. Watching eastern ON where the trigger is stronger #ONstorm #ONwx @weathernetwork
