Residents of southern Ontario town pick up pieces after confirmed tornado

TORONTO (CP) - Residents of southwestern Ontario were picking up the pieces Saturday, and in some cases waiting for the power to be turned on, after a tornado touched down during a stampede of fierce storms a day earlier.
$ @% ^$ h: g2 x- P/ z/ \. n
The severe weather, which developed due to humid and unstable air, began in Milverton, Ont., Friday afternoon and quickly gained steam as it moved east towards Fergus, a community near Conestoga Lake.
" C2 w0 ^' P+ E4 Z
It was here, officials said, where the storm spawned a full-fledged twister close to 300 metres wide that chewed off tree limbs, downed power lines, tossed cars into ditches, and ripped into several homes and barns." |4 r7 J2 e  ?) ^

"We've confirmed at this location a Fujita scale F2 tornado occurred, with winds between 180 to 240 kilometres an hour," said Environment Canada meteorologist Geoff Coulson on Saturday. "That's confirmed with the damage that we've witnessed."$ J" H$ |/ u* }- x% L
( O3 P% {* y9 p  O
A two-storey home in the area had its roof torn clean off and a barn behind the home was levelled to its foundation, Coulson said, all damage consistent with a severe tornado.' q% T! b5 m7 \1 W+ m+ N
) \+ m4 U% \" L0 p
Elsewhere on a nearby highway, a wooden plank was driven into the windshield of a vehicle, another sign of extensive impact damage typically associated with a twister.( O( g5 N5 a5 C$ I! L- K
% |' s8 I; J' E& j/ o3 R+ W
"A tell-tale sign it was tornadic as opposed to just strong winds was the fact there's (mud) splatter on more than one side of a house," he said. "If it had been one wind gust there would be one side with the splatter.") ]" N6 T2 m$ N' {/ H4 ~

On Friday, a state of emergency was declared in the community of Centre Wellington, which includes Fergus, after the storm got out of hand./ u: M* X; j- P; a$ ^5 [

Amidst the wreckage, no serious injuries were reported, provincial police said." D7 ^9 P4 P0 g9 {# f. ]& g, i

"That's pretty amazing given the damage we're seeing here," Coulson said. "(Many) did exactly the right thing. They got into the basement and waited the storm out down there."% e- R$ T0 b" Y$ n5 Z

Fergus resident Klaus Doerig and his wife, Judy, were at home when the skies turned menacingly grey and tree limbs began flying past their window.- _: c0 e* ^/ ^, g4 u$ s$ n

They hunkered down in the furnace room and emerged to find the roof of their home had been partially ripped off and a wall was destroyed.

"We were selling this house," he said. "It was for our retirement. Who would want to buy my house now?"7 X$ q+ X  b: O6 ]! b6 E1 I4 g/ K

Officials continued studying the aftermath in other areas of southern Ontario Saturday afternoon, trying to determine if other regions were hit by tornadoes.' d$ I6 E4 x2 X9 p/ ]( T

Aided by an Ontario Provincial Police helicopter, Environment Canada investigators conducted full aerial surveys of the Milverton area, where the storm began, and areas further east./ s- f4 o: Z: C7 R' |0 M, m

Coulson said officials reported what appeared to be a one-kilometre wide swath of tree damage near Conestoga Lake. They were looking into whether it was the work of a twister.1 S, k/ }% |3 J) R& Y% W) ]. K

"The big thing for us is going to be to try to link up these different reports to see if it was in fact one long-lived tornado on the ground or a series of tornadoes," he said.

Due to the storm, nearly 4,400 people were left without power in Fergus and its surrounding areas on Saturday, said Hydro One spokeswoman Kathleen Welsh. ( W9 K5 x) B3 a3 a$ s* m; t$ J5 _

The majority of residents were to have power restored by Saturday night, Welsh said. 0 P9 P7 J! w2 R% ]8 F, Z

Meanwhile in Toronto, crews were cleaning up from the localized flash flooding that had paralyzed much of the city's main roadways and transit routes, drowning vehicles and leaving motorists knee-deep in water. In one extreme case, flood waters managed to wash away an entire section of road. 3 [+ A7 x# w" `' a0 l. ^: i& Z6 i

During the height of the storm, around the time of the afternoon commute home, officials say the city received over 1,700 calls to emergency services. 0 q2 z" n5 ]; X( L" o# I" L

But flood waters receded rather rapidly and emergency services were quick to respond.

"The city's emergency services and the staff that manage our water, transportation, hydro and forests did a fantastic job of keeping the public safe and protecting the assets of the city," said Toronto Mayor David Miller in a statement. , P: w) |% X) ?* T

"Emergency services personnel were involved in a number of rescues, evacuations and emergency pumping operations and their work prevented serious injuries or death," he said., J8 }+ R2 l! s) ]# w
