Lee has weakened to a post-tropical cyclone as it travels over Atlantic Canada.

As of 11 a.m., Sunday, Lee is about 135 miles west-northwest of Channel-Port aux Basques, Newfoundland, and is moving toward the northeast at 22 miles an hour with maximum sustained winds of 45 mph.

All tropical storm warnings for Canada have been discontinued.

Hurricane forecasters said a faster northeastward to east-northeastward motion is expected for Lee over the next couple of days, taking it over Newfoundland later today and over the Atlantic waters by early Monday.
Continued gradual weakening is forecast during the next couple of days, and Lee could dissipate on Tuesday.
