Clean-up begins in wake of severe B.C. windstorm, thousands still without power-The Canadian PressBy Geordon Omand, The Canadian Press | The Canadian Press – aug 31,15-yahoonews

VANCOUVER - Had Vancouver resident Sherrell Hutchingson been standing a foot to the side while opening her car door during Saturday's vicious windstorm it's unlikely she'd be able to tell her close-call story of a large tree narrowly missing her as it crushed her vehicle."It was scary," said the soft-spoken woman, laughing nervously on the street outside her East Vancouver home. "It went right by my head."It was like a big crack and the tree just snapped ... and fell right on my car."Hutchingson's experience was part of a myriad reported incidents of other smashed vehicles and wrecked roofs following a brutal windstorm that tore down trees and branches, wreaking havoc across southwestern British Columbia and leaving at its height an estimated 500,000 people without power.Eighty-kilometre-an-hour winds buffeted the Greater Vancouver Area, at one point toppling a tree onto a woman in her 40s who was walking with her daughter in Surrey. The RCMP described the woman's injuries as life-threatening.Sadhu Johnston, Vancouver's deputy city manager, described the scale of the storm as "unprecedented" and estimated it would take weeks for the city to fully clean up the debris."This is probably one of the most intense storms that we've had over the past decade," he said during a news conference, while behind him city crews worked to remove fallen branches from the road."I think the drought combined with the high winds really impacted us," he added. "The drought led to more trees coming down, which led to more power outages. So it kind of compounded."The cost of the extensive property damage and the bill for cleaning up the huge mess has yet to be tallied, he said.In terms of damage, park board official Brian Quinn said timing was the biggest contributing factor. Such high winds typically arrive in the fall or winter when the trees are bare, he explained."This time of year with the canopies completely full of leaves, they act more as a wind sail and catch more of the wind," said Quinn.The bulk of the outages occurred in the Greater Vancouver Area, and BC Hydro said that as of early Monday morning about 90,000 customers were still waiting for the power to be restored.BC Hydro said it could take until Monday morning to bring some residents out of the dark, including neighbourhoods in Coquitlam, Surrey and Port Moody.The region's 911 line was overwhelmed with inquiries about power outages, prompting officials to ask residents to call only in the event of an urgent emergency.Metro Vancouver Regional District spokesman Rod Tulett said on Sunday that the district's emergency procedures had so far performed well. He described the weekend's gales as the backup system's biggest test since the district was caught off-guard by a windstorm in 2006 that battered the Lower Mainland and uprooted numerous trees in Vancouver's Stanley Park."After the big windstorm a lot of our facilities received significant upgrades in their backup-power capability," said Tulett. "We learned from that."Residents took to social media with a mix of both praise and condemnation for BC Hydro and its response to the outages, with much of the vitriol directed toward the utility's website only working sporadically.The Greater Vancouver Zoo also suffered extensive damage in the storm, said the facility's general manager Jody Henderson. Powerful winds caused a number of major fences to come down, most notably the barricade surrounding the grizzly bear enclosure."We followed our normal emergency protocol. ... Everyone was contained into a building," said Henderson about the incident. "At no time did our grizzly bear get out."Strong winds also swept through Rock Creek in the southern interior, where a 44-square-kilometre wildfire destroyed 30 homes earlier this month.The storm triggered wind warnings from Environment Canada, forced the temporary closure of Stanley Park, and slowed ferry service between Victoria and the mainland.— Follow @gwomand on Twitter

Tropical Storm Fred strengthens over eastern Atlantic-Reuters By David Adams-aug 30,15-yahoonews

MIAMI (Reuters) - Tropical Storm Fred strengthened in the eastern Atlantic off the coast of Africa on Sunday, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said.Fred is forecast to reach hurricane status with winds of 75 miles per hour (120 km per hour) before moving through the Cape Verde islands on Monday, the Miami-based forecaster said."Storm surge is expected to produce coastal flooding in areas of onshore winds in the Cape Verde Islands, the NHC said.Fred, the sixth named storm of the 2015 Atlantic hurricane season, is expected to lose hurricane strength by Wednesday as it moves west before likely dissipating.Fred was only the fourth Atlantic tropical storm to form east of the Cape Verde Island, the NHC said."It's very rare for those islands to see a hurricane," said John Cangialosi, a specialist with the NHC. "We are checking our records and the last hurricane event we can see was in the 1960s."Meanwhile, the remnants of Tropical Storm Erika, which dissipated over Cuba on Saturday, were producing gusty conditions and heavy rain over parts of south Florida, the NHC said.It could regain tropical storm force over the next day or so, the forecasters said, as it heads for the northwest Florida Panhandle.(Reporting by David Adams; Editing by Mark Heinrich and Lisa Shumaker)

Fred is easternmost hurricane to form in tropics of Atlantic, 1st to cross Cape Verde Islands-The Canadian PressBy The Associated Press | The Canadian Press – aug 31,15-yahoonews

MIAMI - Weather forecasters say Hurricane Fred is easternmost hurricane known to have formed in the Atlantic tropics, and the first to actually pass over the Cape Verde Islands as a hurricane-The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami says Fred's maximum sustained winds Monday afternoon are near 85 mph (137 kph).Hurricane Fred is centred about 20 miles (32 kilometres) north-northeast of Ribeira Brava in the Cape Verde Islands and is moving northwest near 12 mph (19 kph).A hurricane warning is in effect for the islands, where Fred is expected to produce total rain accumulations of 4 to 6 inches, with possible isolated maximum amounts of 10 inches. Gradual weakening is forecast to begin Tuesday.Meanwhile in the Pacific, Hurricane Jimena is centred about 1,330 miles (2140 kilometres) east of Hilo, Hawaii, and is moving west near 16 mph (26 kph). The Category 4 storm has maximum sustained winds near 150 mph (240 kph). The hurricane doesn't currently pose a threat to land.

Tropical Storm Erika weakens as heads toward Cuba, but leaves 20 dead in eastern Caribbean-The Canadian PressBy Ezequiel Abieu Lopez And Danica Coto, The Associated Press | The Canadian Press – Sat, 29 Aug, 2015-yahoonews

SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic - Tropical Storm Erika was losing its punch, apparently dissipating even as it drenched Haiti and the Dominican Republic early Saturday. But it left devastation in its path, killing at least 20 people and leaving another 31 missing on the small eastern Caribbean island of Dominica, authorities said.Another four people died in Haiti in a traffic accident that apparently occurred in the rain.The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said that mountains and an unfavourable environment would likely knock Erika below tropical storm force, though there had been a small chance it could recover as it moved along Cuba and then approached Florida late Sunday. By early Saturday, the centre said the storm appeared to be dissipating.Dominica Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit said in a televised address late Friday that damage inflicted by the storm set the island back 20 years. Some 15 inches (38 centimetres) of rain fell on the mountainous island."The extent of the devastation is monumental. It is far worse than expected," he said, adding that hundreds of homes, bridges and roads have been destroyed. "We have, in essence, to rebuild Dominica."At least 31 people have been reported missing, according to officials with the Barbados-based Caribbean Disaster Emergency Response Agency.The island's airports remained closed, and some communities remained isolated by flooding and landslides.Skerrit asked people to share their resources with each other as foreign aid trickled in."This is a period of national tragedy," he said. "Floods swamped villages, destroyed homes and wiped out roads. Some communities are no longer recognizable." Erika still carried enough force to knock out power to more than 200,000 people in Puerto Rico and cause more than $16 million in damage to crops there, including plantains, bananas and coffee.In Haiti, authorities evacuated 254 prisoners in Gonaives to other locations because of flooding, and two people were hospitalized after their home in Port-au-Prince collapsed in heavy rains.Four people died and another 11 were hospitalized in Leogane, just west of the Haitian capital, when a truck carrying a liquor known locally as clairin crashed into a bus and exploded. Authorities said it apparently was raining when the accident occurred.Mudslides were blocking some roads north of Port-au-Prince, according to reports.While the storm was stumbling over the Dominican Republic and Haiti, John Cagialosi, a hurricane specialist at the centre, warned that people in Florida should still brace for heavy rain, said "This is a potentially heavy rain event for a large part of the state," he said.Florida Gov. Rick Scott declared a state of emergency for the entire state and officials urged residents to fill gas tanks and stockpile food and water.Erika is a particularly wet storm, and it is moving across a region that has been struggling with drought.Given how weak the storm now is and how dry Puerto Rico and parts of Florida have been, "it could be a net benefit, this thing," said MIT meteorology professor Kerry Emanuel.The centre of Erika was located about 55 miles (90 kilometres) east-northeast of Holguin, Cuba, and was moving west-northwest near 20 mph (31 kph) in a general motion expected to continue into the evening, the Hurricane Center said Saturday morning. The storm's maximum sustained winds were near 40 mph (65 kph).The Hurricane Center earlier Erika or its remnants will move near or over portions of eastern Cuba on Saturday and move near central Cuba Saturday night.Meanwhile in the Pacific, Jimena turned into a powerful Category 3 hurricane with maximum sustained winds near 125 mph (205 kph), and the Hurricane Center said it was likely to be near Category 5 status soon, though it did not pose an immediate threat to land.___Coto reported from San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Migrant crisis will lead to uniform EU rules: Renzi-Reuters-aug 30,15-yahoonews

ROME (Reuters) - The European Union migrant crisis will eventually push the 28-nation bloc to adopt uniform rules for refugees and end a patchwork of norms that have exacerbated the emergency, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi said.Hundreds of thousands of migrants, mostly from Africa and the Middle East, have poured into Europe this year, many braving hazardous sea crossings in the hope of finding refuge -- at least 2,500 dying in the process.Europe's disparate laws and confused approach to dealing with asylum seekers have drawn widespread criticism, with one senior official acknowledging this week that the bloc had failed in its collective response.Italy, the point of entry for many of the migrants, has repeatedly complained of not receiving enough support from its EU partners in dealing with influx, but Renzi told the Corriere della Sera newspaper that change was coming."It will take months, but we will have a single European policy on asylum, not as many policies as there are (EU) countries," he said, adding that the rising death toll among refugees was pushing EU states to confront the problem.Renzi said the EU needed to be more present in Africa and the Middle East to try to improve living conditions there and discourage migration. It also needed to make it easier to repatriate those not granted refugee status."This is the time to launch a political and diplomatic offensive," he said.Asked whether it was also time to intervene in Syria and Libya -- two countries convulsed by wars that have fueled the migrant crisis, Renzi said U.S. President Barack Obama had called for a meeting of leaders next month on the sidelines of the U.N. general assembly to discuss the issue.He gave no further details.(Writing by Crispian Balmer; Editing by Mark Heinrich)

Unprecedented migrant crisis forces EU to seek answers-Reuters By Foo Yun Chee-aug 30,15-yahoonews

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - European Union ministers were summoned on Sunday to meet in two weeks' time to seek urgent solutions to a migration crisis unprecedented in the bloc's history, as the mounting death toll on land and sea forced governments to respond.Luxembourg, which holds the rotating EU presidency, called interior ministers from all 28 member states to an extraordinary meeting on Sept. 14, saying: "The situation of migration phenomena outside and inside the European Union has recently taken unprecedented proportions." Chancellor Angela Merkel earlier called on her EU neighbours to do more as Germany expects the number of asylum seekers it receives to quadruple to about 800,000 in 2015."If Europe has solidarity and we have also shown solidarity towards others, then we need to show solidarity now," she told reporters in Berlin. "Everything must move quickly."Luxembourg said the meeting would focus on policies on sending some migrants home and measures to prevent human trafficking.Seven people died when their boat sank off Libya's coast on Sunday, the second such fatal accident at sea within days. The Italian coastguard said some 1,600 migrants had been rescued in the Mediterranean and brought to Italy over the weekend.At least 2,500 migrants have died since January, most of them drowning in the Mediterranean after arduous journeys fleeing war, oppression or poverty in Syria and other parts of the Middle East and Africa or beyond.The horrors faced by migrants were brought to the heart of the European mainland on Friday when 71 bodies, including those of a baby girl and three other children were found in an abandoned refrigeration truck in Austria.The dead, believed to be refugees from Syria or possibly Afghanistan, had been packed into the truck with just 1 square metre (10 sq ft) of space per five people, police said on Sunday, as initial forensic tests indicated they had suffocated.Hungarian police arrested a fifth suspect, a Bulgarian citizen, in connection with the deaths. Three Bulgarians and one Afghan had already been arrested.-BORDERLESS SYSTEM-Criticism of Europe's disparate laws and approaches to dealing with asylum seekers has mounted.Some governments have refused to take in refugees and resisted EU proposals to agree on a common plan. Others are toughening their asylum policies and border security, sometimes because of rising anti-immigration and nationalist sentiment.French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius accused eastern European states, notably Hungary, which is building a fence against migrants along its border, of a "scandalous" policy."They are extremely harsh. Hungary is part of Europe, which has values and we do not respect those value by putting up fences," Fabius told Europe 1 radio.But British interior minister Theresa May blamed Europe's borderless system, known as "Schengen", for fuelling the crisis and demanded tighter EU rules on free movement."When it was first enshrined, free movement meant the freedom to move to a job, not the freedom to cross borders to look for work or claim benefits," May said. "We must take some big decisions, face down powerful interests and reinstate the original principle."Some European governments are considering amending the Schengen code, but the European Commission, the EU executive which enforces it, says there is no need to change the rules, either to improve security or control migration.In Italy which as the entry point for many migrants has been at the forefront of the crisis, Prime Minister Matteo Renzi said the rising death toll would push EU states to confront the problem."It will take months, but we will have a single European policy on asylum, not as many policies as there are countries," he said.(Additional reporting by Crispian Balmer in Rome, William James in London, Karin Strohecker in Vienna, Paul Carrel in Berlin, Hani Amara and Ahmed Elumami in Libya, and Marton Dunai in Budapest; Writing by Raissa Kasolowsky and Robin Pomeroy; Editing by Alison Williams)

Hunger rises in Somalia as el Nino floods loom: U.N-By Katy Migiro | Reuters – aug 31,15-yahoonews

NAIROBI (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - The number of Somalis in hunger has risen in the past six months, the United Nations said on Monday, predicting a further spike as the Horn of Africa nation braces itself for the worst flooding in decades.Following a poor cereal harvest caused by an early end to the rainy season, there has been a 17 percent increase in the number of Somalis in food crisis, up to 855,000 people, two-thirds of whom are internally displaced."The country's humanitarian situation remains alarming," the U.N. said in a statement.Somalia experienced a devastating famine in 2011, caused by drought, war and lack of access to humanitarian aid.EL NINO-Scientists fear Somalia will face severe flooding because of the El Nino phenomenon, a warming of sea-surface temperatures in the Pacific.This phenomenon is strengthening and is likely to peak in three to seven months' time, the Australian Bureau of Meteorology said.Sea-surface temperature anomalies in the Pacific Ocean are set to climb to the highest in 19 years.This El Nino is predicted to be the biggest since the last major event in east Africa in 1997, which caused heavy rains and flash floods."This is likely to lead to disease, loss of crops and property, and to deterioration in the food security and nutritional situations," the U.N. said.In Somalia, 3.1 million people - about one third of the population - need emergency aid of some kind.-Some 855,000 people need emergency food aid, and another 2.3 million are food stressed, the U.N. said.-VIOLATIONS-Some 215,000 children under five are malnourished, most of them living in settlements for the internally displaced, where global acute malnutrition rates are consistently above the emergency threshold of 15 percent, the U.N. said.There are about 1.1 million internally displaced people in Somalia, who experience child labor, sexual and gender-based violence and forced family separations, it said.Food security assessments are carried out twice a year following the Gu and Dehr rains.The assessments are led by the Food Security and Nutritional Analysis Unit (FSNAU), managed by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)."We all need to do more," the new U.N. humanitarian coordinator for Somalia, Peter de Clercq, said at a media briefing on Monday in the Somali capital, Mogadishu.(Reporting by Alex Whiting, Editing by xxxx.; Please credit the Thomson Reuters Foundation, the charitable arm of Thomson Reuters, that covers humanitarian news, women's rights, trafficking, corruption and climate change.

Iran is 'true enemy' of Gulf Arabs: Kuwaiti MP-AFP-aug 30,15-yahoonews

Kuwait City (AFP) - A senior Kuwaiti lawmaker on Sunday described Iran as the "true enemy" of Sunni-ruled Gulf Arab states, in a sign of growing tensions with the Shiite power."It has become clear to all that Iran is an enemy plotting to swallow up our states and resources and is the true enemy of the region," Hamad al-Harashani, the head of the Kuwaiti parliament's foreign relations committee, said in a statement.It was the strongest Kuwaiti criticism in years of Iran, with which Kuwait has traditionally had better ties than its fellow Gulf Arab states.Harashani singled out an apparent bomb attack Friday in Bahrain as "yet further evidence of Iran's aggression" in the region.The blast killed a policeman and wounded seven people, with Bahraini officials saying explosives used in the attack were similar to material seized by authorities last month which "came from Iran"."Iran is seeking to spread chaos and undermine the ruling regimes" in the region, Harashani said, calling on Gulf states to boost security coordination.Kuwait and Iran were on relatively good terms for years until the Gulf state this month broke up a "terrorist cell" and seized large quantities of weapons and explosives.Local media reported that the cell belonged to pro-Iranian Lebanese Shiite militia Hezbollah. There has been no official confirmation of the claim.A decades-old row between Kuwait and Iran over the disputed offshore Dorra gas field then resurfaced last week.Kuwait summoned Iran's charge d'affaires to protest Tehran's apparent offer of investment opportunities in the Dorra field.The move followed a report by the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) about investment possibilities in the Islamic republic, which "covered areas located near the Kuwaiti oilfield," the KUNA news agency said.

Defiant Malaysian PM rejects calls that he step down-Associated Press By EILEEN NG-aug 30,15-yahoonews

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — Embattled Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak poured scorn on a huge two-day rally that brought together tens of thousands of yellow-shirted protesters demanding his resignation over a financial scandal.Large crowds of protesters camped overnight on the streets of Kuala Lumpur wearing yellow shirts of the Bersih movement — a coalition for clean and fair elections — even after authorities blocked the organizer's website and banned yellow attire and the group's logo.Former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, who has been spearheading calls for Najib's resignation, made appeared at the rally with his wife for a second day, telling protesters that people power was needed to remove Najib and return the rule of law.Najib has been fighting for political survival after leaked documents in July showed he received some $700 million in his private accounts from entities linked to indebted state fund 1MDB. He later said the money was a donation from the Middle East, fired his critical deputy and four other Cabinet members as well as the attorney general investigating him.Police estimated the crowd size at 35,000, but Bersih says it swelled to 300,000 on Sunday from 200,000 on Saturday.Najibhas slammed the protests for tarnishing Malaysia's image, and dismissed their size."What is 20,000? We can gather hundreds of thousands," he was quoted as saying by local media at a rural event in a northern state. "The rest of the Malaysian population is with the government."In his National Day message late Sunday, Najib said the government rejected street protests, saying they can disrupt public order and not the right way to show unhappiness in a democratic country.They "reflected a shallow mind and poor national spirit," he said.Najib vowed not to bow to pressure. "Once the sails have been set, once the anchor has been raised, the captain and his crew would never change course," he said.The rally was peaceful Saturday and lasted until midnight Sunday to usher in Malaysia's 58th National Day."This is a watershed moment. Malaysians are united in their anger at the mismanagement of this country. We are saying loudly that there should be a change in the leadership," said protester Azrul Khalib, who slept on the street with his friends.He said he was aware that the rally will not bring change overnight, but he wants to be "part of efforts to build a new Malaysia."Some used colored chalk to scrawl their demands on the street, writing slogans such as, "We want change," and "We want clean and fair (elections)."Scores of police barricaded roads leading to the Independence Square, a national landmark that authorities declared off-limits to protesters. Previous two Bersih rallies, in 2011 and 2012, were dispersed by police using tear gas and water cannons.Analysts said the rally attracted a largely urban crowd with a smaller participation of ethnic Malays, which could be the reason why the Najib government allowed it to go on."They feel safe because it has not really affected the rural Malay segment, their bedrock support," said political analyst Ibrahim Suffian. However, he said this doesn't mean that rural Malays are happy with the government, as many are upset with the plunging currency and economic slowdown.A nation of 30 million, Malaysia is predominantly Malay Muslim with significant Chinese and Indian minorities. Its ambitions to rise from a middle income to a developed nation this decade have been stymied by slow-paced reforms and Najib's increasing authoritarianism.Support for Najib's National Front has eroded in the last two general elections. It won in 2013, but lost the popular vote for the first time to an opposition alliance.Concerns over the political scandal partly contributed to the Malaysian currency plunging to a 17-year low earlier this month.In his speech, Najib rejected fears that the economy is crumbling. "It is clearly proven that Malaysia is not a failed state, as alleged, nor is it about to become bankrupt," he said. "On the contrary, the fact is we are stable, with strong fundamentals and will continue to survive and remain competitive."Apart from Najib's resignation, the demands being sought are institutional reforms that will make the government more transparent and accountable.

Blast reported at chemical plant in northern China-Reuters – aug 31,15-yahoonews

BEIJING (Reuters) - An explosion shook a chemical plant in the eastern Chinese province of Shandong, state media said on Tuesday, though there were no immediate reports of casualties in a country on edge after blasts killed more than 145 people last month.A single "loud" blast occurred at the plant in Dongying shortly before midnight, state radio said on its official Weibo microblog, showing pictures of the explosion in what appeared to be a fairly remote industrial area.There were no other details available and Reuters was not immediately able to reach officials for comment.One person died last month when an explosion hit a chemical plant in a different part of Shandong.On Aug. 12, explosions at a warehouse storing dangerous chemicals devastated an industrial park in the northern port city of Tianjin, killing at least 145 people.The latest incident will likely raise more questions about safety standards in China, where industrial accidents are all too common following three decades of fast economic growth. A blast at an auto parts factory killed 75 people a year ago.(Reporting by Ben Blanchard; Editing by Hugh Lawson)
