Now a post-tropical cyclone, Elsa has moved past the U.S. and shifted to portions of Atlantic Canada on Friday night.

The storm -- which killed one man , injured and stranded others and knocked out power for thousands -- brought extreme weather events including flooding, heavy downpours, strong winds and tornadoes up and down the eastern U.S.

Maximum sustained winds from the storm were at 50 mph from Boston, Mass. to Maine before the NWS National Hurricane Center (NHC) discontinued all Tropical Storm Warnings for the New England Coast. 

Elsa blew into the Bay of Fundy and Canada late Friday, though gusty winds, heavy rains and flooding persisted in the U.S.

The NHC said that a gradual weakening of the storm was forecast to occur over the next couple of days and that Elsa is expected to dissipate over the North Atlantic by Sunday afternoon.

Elsa is the earliest fifth-named storm on record.

A "more pleasant weather pattern" is expected across much of the Mid-Atlantic and New England on Saturday, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).

Nine tons -- or about 15,000 fish -- were removed from the waters surrounding St. Petersburg, Fla. as the massive Red Tide cleanup effort enters its tenth day.

More dead fish were collected in the past 24 hours than in the last week and city officials said Tropical Storm Elsa worsened the effort, according to Fox 13 .

"We’ve collected 15 tons of fish in those 10 days and nine tons of those fish have been picked up in the last 24 hours," Amber Boulding, St. Petersburg’s emergency manager, told the station. "We’ve been dealing with Red Tide. Tropical Storm Elsa came and really exacerbated that issue and pushed even more fish in."

The city of more than 265,000 people has reportedly recruited more than 120 staff members to assist in the cleanup and are looking at bringing in external contractors.

"We’re out there, we’re scraping and netting fish but the best way to let us know where those kills are and where the big piles of fish are is to let us know," Boulding said.

30 minutes away, Florida's Hillsborough Bay shoreline has also reported fish kills suspected to be related to Red Tide and state scientists are investigating whether there's a link between reports of Red Tide blooms and the state's decision to pump 215 million gallons of polluted wastewater into Tampa Bay from a leaking reservoir near Port Manatee.

A spokeswoman for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said in June that the discharge did not cause Red Tide in Tampa Bay but it may have made it worse.

Fast-moving Tropical Storm Elsa lashed the New Jersey coast with high winds and soaked New York City as it churned up the East Coast on Friday. 

Overnight in coastal New Jersey Thursday, a 78 mph wind gust was recorded in Ludlam Bay, and a 71 mph gust was recorded in Beach Haven — both appeared to be "associated with nearby tornadoes," the National Hurricane Center said in a 5 a.m. update. 

Elsa had maximum sustained winds of 50 mph, forecasters said. Around 8 a.m. Friday, it was centered about 90 miles southwest of Montauk Point, New York.
