Pensacola, Fla. — A Canadian relief convoy was blown slightly off course Saturday by hurricane Ophelia and will arrive along the previously storm-battered U.S. Gulf Coast one day later than anticipated.

It won't be until Monday that three warships laden with humanitarian supplies will be able to unload their cargo.

The fact that Canadian ships and aid were on the way came as a surprise to some rescuers and hurricane Katrina survivors, who remain huddled in Pensacola, Fla. hotels.
