DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
———————-
At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone
Dorian was located near latitude 52.1 North, longitude 53.4 West.
The post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the east-northeast near
24 mph (39 km/h) and this motion is forecast to continue through
Tuesday. On the forecast track, the center of the post-tropical
cyclone Dorian will continue to move away from Atlantic Canada
through Tuesday.

Maximum sustained winds are near 60 mph (95 km/h) with higher gusts.
Some weakening is forecast during the next 48 hours, and the
post-tropical cyclone is forecast to be absorbed by a larger low
pressure system on Tuesday.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 415 miles (665 km)
from the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 980 mb (28.94 inches).

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
———————-
WIND: Tropical-storm-force wind gusts will continue across portions
of southeastern Newfoundland until early Monday and then diminish by
late Monday morning.

STORM SURGE: Storm surge along the northeastern Gulf of St. Lawrence
and the West Coast of Newfoundland will continue to subside through
Monday morning.

RAINFALL: Dorian is expected to produce rainfall accumulations of
less than 1 inch across far eastern Quebec into Newfoundland and
Labrador.

SURF: Large swells are affecting the coast of Atlantic Canada, and
they will continue to affect that area during the next couple of
days. Swells along the mid-Atlantic and New England coasts of the
U.S. will continue for another day or so. These swells are likely
to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please
consult products from your local weather office.
