Aviation Investigation Report A98H0003

1.7.1  General ^(STI1-45)

Two active weather systems were in the area of the SR 111 flight track between New York to Halifax: a line of thunderstorms moving through the New York area; and Hurricane Danielle, which was located approximately 300 nm southeast of Halifax. The forecasted effects of both systems were moving in a predictable manner. Nova Scotia was under the influence of a weak ridge of high pressure and the distant effects of the hurricane.
