Remembering the 50 Year Anniversary of Hurricane Hazel
The Ocean Ranger Storm in 1982 was more intense (winds near 170 km/h). The August Hurricane of 1927 claimed more lives (at least 173). The Ice Storm of 1998 affected more people (over a million households lost power). The Edmonton tornado in 1987 was more sudden (less than an hour warning).

Hurricane Juan
At 12:10 a.m. ADT, Monday September 29, 2003, Hurricane Juan made landfall in Nova Scotia as one of most powerful and damaging hurricanes to ever affect Canada. In response to the large demand for information, Environment Canada has created a comprehensive Hurricane Juan web site summarizing all aspects of the hurricane. The web site is updated regularly with new articles, summaries, maps, and photos.
