| Tornadoes rip through southern Ontariohttp://www.globalnational.com/dead+more+tornado+warnings+southern+Ontario/1913695/story.html - Quote :
- A series of tornadoes tore through southern Ontario Thursday, leaving one reported death, numerous injuries and a path of destroyed houses, uprooted trees, flipped cars and downed power lines across hundreds of kilometres.
Around 6:30 p.m. local time, Environment Canada extended tornado warnings to areas just north of Toronto, including Uxbridge, Beaverton, Northern Durham Region, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Markham, Newmarket, Georgina, and northern York Region. Major centres, including Toronto and Hamilton were added to that list shortly thereafter.
Tornadoes were reported, but not confirmed, in Durham, Collingwood, Newmarket and Vaughan.
Emergency officials in West Grey, about 180 kilometres northwest of Toronto, were scrambling to assess the "extensive" damage after the tornado tore through the town, destroying houses and businesses, downing hydro lines and causing numerous injuries. @Northern Boy....any damage in your neck of the woods? Markdale got some damage. My friends' parents have (had) a house trailer in the conservation area that got hit. Luckily they were not at the trailer when the storm went through. Ironically they had gone shopping for some awning holders. Well when they got back they found they didn't need them because their awning was ripped off of the trailer and a large tree was laying on the middle of their trailer. One small boy was killed in this park. Yesterday there was heavy chemtrail acitivity in the area. Connection???? | |

| Its funny you should mention this.
Yesterday we had a tornado touch down in places that are so far out of the norm that people really panicked.
My husband asked why the sirens went off......we turned on the tv and heard there was a warning out for us.
The weird part is our temperture was cold, not at all tornado weather............
The weather stations never even picked up that it was heading this way.
Strange..............or HARP | |
