The good news is that Hurricane Lee is weakening and will keep doing so before making landfall near the U.S.-Canada border. The bad news is that it will bring dangerous winds and a massive amount of water to areas that are already saturated from heavy rainfall this summer.
"Regardless of Lee's designation when it approaches New England and Atlantic Canada, it will remain a very large and dangerous cyclone through landfall," the National Hurricane Center said on Thursday.
