Hurricane Ginny was the strongest recorded tropical cyclone to make landfall in Canada, as well as the latest hurricane on a calendar year to affect the U.S. state of Maine.

As it moved to the North and later northwest, Ginny intensified to hurricane status as it became more tropical. For eight days, it was located within 250 mi (400 km) of the United States coastline. After approaching North Carolina, Ginny looped to the southwest and approached within 50 mi (80 km) of the Florida coastline.

  • Hurricane Ginny was the strongest recorded tropical cyclone to make landfall in Canada, as well as the latest hurricane on a calendar year to affect the U.S. state of Maine. The eighth tropical storm, as well as the seventh and final hurricane of the 1963 Atlantic hurricane season, Ginny developed on October 16 over the Bahamas, although it was not initially a fully tropical cyclone. As it moved to the North and later northwest, Ginny intensified to hurricane status as it became more tropical. For eight days, it was located within 250 mi (400 km) of the United States coastline. After approaching North Carolina, Ginny looped to the southwest and approached within 50 mi (80 km) of the Florida coastline. It turned to the North, to the East, and later to the northeast, strengthening late in its duration to peak winds of 110 mph (175 km/h). Ginny became an extratropical cyclone shortly after striking Nova Scotia at its peak intensity on October 29. Although it remained close to the United States coastline, its impact was minor. Beach erosion and light rainfall was reported along much of the coastline, although the precipitation was beneficial in ending droughts in South Carolina and New England. High waves destroyed one house in North Carolina. Damage was heaviest in New England, where several buildings were damaged and thousands were left without power. The passage of Ginny resulted in a snow storm across eastern New England, particularly in northern Maine, where it killed two people. In Atlantic Canada, the extratropical storm produced high wind and waves, causing damage to boats and resulting in power outages. (en)
  • O Furacão Ginny foi o ciclone tropical mais forte registado a atingir o Canadá, bem como o último furacão em um ano civil a afetar o estado americano de Maine. A oitava tempestade tropical, bem como o sétimo e último furacão da temporada de furacões no oceano Atlântico de 1963, Ginny desenvolveu-se em 16 de outubro sobre as Bahamas, embora não fosse inicialmente um ciclone totalmente tropical. À medida que se movia para o norte e, mais tarde, para noroeste, Ginny se intensificou para o status de furacão à medida que se tornava mais tropical. Por oito dias, foi localizado dentro de 400 km (250 mi) da costa dos Estados Unidos. Depois de se aproximar da Carolina do Norte, Ginny deu uma volta para o sudoeste e se aproximou dentro de 80 km (50 mi) da costa da Flórida. Virou-se para o norte, para o leste e depois para o nordeste, fortalecendo-se no final de sua duração para ventos de pico de 180 km/h (110 mph). Ginny se tornou um ciclone extratropical logo após atingir a Nova Escócia em seu pico de intensidade em 29 de outubro. Embora tenha permanecido próximo à costa dos Estados Unidos, seu impacto foi mínimo. A erosão costeira e pouca chuva foram relatadas ao longo de grande parte da costa, embora a precipitação tenha sido benéfica para acabar com as secas na Carolina do Sul e na Nova Inglaterra. As ondas fortes destruíram uma casa na Carolina do Norte. Os danos foram maiores na Nova Inglaterra, onde vários edifícios foram danificados e milhares ficaram sem energia. A passagem de Ginny resultou em uma tempestade de neve no leste da Nova Inglaterra, particularmente no norte do Maine, onde matou duas pessoas. No Canadá Atlântico, a tempestade extratropical produziu ventos fortes e ondas, causando danos aos barcos e resultando em cortes de energia. (pt)
