Communities in southwestern Newfoundland are grappling with significant damage, including lost homes, flooding and road washouts due to post-tropical storm Fiona.
Everything east of town hall in Port aux Basques is under an emergency evacuation order as the town is pounded by severe winds and storm surge.
“What’s actually happening here is total devastation,” said Mayor Brian Button.
Some amazing video of the ocean pummeling the shorelines of Port aux Basques earlier today. This was taken by @NTVNewsNL reporter @DonBradshawNTV who is covering the area for us. We are being as safe as possible given the conditions. #nlwx #Fiona pic.twitter.com/rxTWjdFboI
