1927 Nova Scotia hurricane
The 1927 Nova Scotia hurricane (also known as the 1927 Great August Gale or the Great Gale of August 24) was a powerful Category 3 hurricane that struck the Canadian province of Nova Scotia in mid-August 1927. The first major hurricane of the 1927 Atlantic hurricane season, the storm struck Atlantic Canada as a powerful extratropical storm with winds at 100 mph (161 km/h) where it caused severe damage and left 184 fatalities (mostly at sea).〔Weather Underground (2006) (1927 Archive ) URL Accessed: September 14, 2006〕
==Storm history==
A possible Cape Verde type hurricane, the storm was detected on August 21, east of the Leeward Islands (it had already reached hurricane status on August 19).〔Weather Underground (2006)(1927 Archive ) URL Accessed: September 14, 2006〕〔National Weather Service (1927) (1927 Monthly Weather Review ) URL Accessed: September 14, 2006〕 Warmer waters in the Atlantic Ocean allowed the hurricane to rapidly reach Category 3 status on August 22 and a ship reported a barometric pressure of 28.06 inches (950 millibars). The hurricane moved northwestward at a speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) before recurving on August 23. With the center 100 miles (161 km) east of North Carolina, the hurricane moved northeast where it bypassed Nantucket by 100 miles (161 km). The hurricane then made landfall in Nova Scotia on August 24 as a strong extratropical storm with 100 mph (161 km/h) winds. Later the extratropical remnants of the hurricane were tracked as far north as Iceland.〔(1927 Monthly Weather Review )〕〔''Unknown'' (Hurricanes affecting Maine ) URL Accessed: September 18, 2006〕
