HURRICANE LARRY COULD BE HEADED FOR NEWFOUNDLAND

Residents of eastern Newfoundland are being warned hurricane Larry could have an impact on the Avalon Peninsula on Friday. The Canadian Hurricane Centre in Halifax has issued a tropical cyclone statement, saying some weather models are suggesting the storm will remain far offshore while others indicate it will travel across the peninsula, which includes St. John's. The major hurricane was churning out maximum sustained winds of 195 km/h Tuesday as it tracked north toward Bermuda.
