Environment Canada has issued tornado warnings for several areas next to Lake Huron in southwestern Ontario as possible twisters have been spotted. The province issued a "red alert" that will be in effect until 8:30 p.m. ET.
"One possible tornado is heading toward Shelburne in Dufferin County," said a bulletin from Environment Canada. "Another is heading toward Lucan in Middlesex County. A third is coming onshore off the Lake Huron shoreline between St. Joseph and Bayfield."
It added that a funnel cloud has been sighted over Nairn, about 40 kilometres northwest of London.
The weather office issued tornado warnings for a variety of areas in Lambton, Middlesex, Bruce, Perth, Wellington, Dufferin, Huron and Grey Counties. Environment Canada said the city of London "was not under the immediate threat of a tornado."
I left my kids there! Was just talking to them and they are fine, but as a mom I tend to worry. The tornado I told you about on Sunday was only an hour from where we live and the reported sightings today are all within an hour of our place.
Tornadoes, earthquake, hurricane... Such crazy going ons!!
My daughter says the clouds were racing by with nonstop lightening and thunder.
