Thousands without power as storm Lee begins lashing northeast US, Canada
The storm threatened to make landfall on Saturday with hurricane-force winds, dangerous surf and torrential rains.
Storm Lee which was downgraded to a post-tropical cyclone has begun lashing northeast United States and across the border in Canada, causing heavy rains and cutting power to tens of thousands.
Severe conditions were predicted across parts of Massachusetts and Maine in the US, and hurricane conditions could hit the Canadian provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, where the weakened storm was expected to make landfall later in the day.
