Possible tornado hits Fergus, Ont. [Video]

A tornado left a path of destruction in Fergus, Ont. on Sunday.

That was confirmed by the Northern Tornadoes Project (NTP), based out of Western University in London, Ont., after their experts visited the small community on Monday.

The survey team has given the twister a preliminary rating of EF0, the lowest rating on the Enhanced Fujita Scale, with estimated wind speeds between 90 km/h and 130 km/h.

Reaction from residents

Tabitha Champagne said she’s always keeping an eye on the skies.

“I love weather, so I generally will check the radar every day. Yesterday it looked pretty boring.”

She was at home in Kitchener, Ont. when things started to really pick up around 9:30 p.m.

“All of the sudden, it literally broke loose,” Champagne told CTV News. “It went from 30 km/h winds to, like, 100 [km/h]. It was pouring and there was ice mixed in with it.”
