On Feb. 16, 2014, The Weather Network's Chief Meteorologist Chris Scott tweeted that standing amid the infamous 'Les Suêtes' winds in Cape Breton during a bomb (explanation of that term here) was top of his weather bucket list.

On Mar. 26, 2014, we sent Chris to that very spot in Grand Etang, NS, to report on the Nor'easter that ravaged Atlantic Canada, an area where on the day wind records fell as quickly as they were established. It made for a very dangerous situation, as you will see.

Joining him was The Weather Network's resident storm chaser Mark Robinson, a man no stranger to hurricanes, or more recently, photographing tornadoes on the ground in the famed 'Tornado Alley'. The two meteorologists remarked how they were likely witnessing the most extreme weather in the entire world at that momemt, before that statement became a harbinger of things to come for the pair.
