/ t9 \. O+ Q: A8 h; L( w7 l# P' iTORONTO (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.
( f% B& x: R- q3 R6 `& _, I0 a# O3 S. ^. e* z) [; t. P9 m
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.9 ]8 |# l( Y0 q$ ?0 m
$ C, j8 Y% f; E( \# v- M
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.
; F* b* i2 J3 B; A6 |6 H
; {9 j4 \3 p$ a, D"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."
9 f0 C3 @2 y* g- s9 G: q) _4 T( y- O* j. I
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.$ W* s& j# A/ _5 b$ i, ^. {
2 S# ^3 l( L; u
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.7 V' Q0 i7 q3 z. ]! k$ r

' r+ D" Z7 R1 q$ l"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."

"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."% o5 b8 L/ n- Z  s7 Y

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.

Officials continued studying the aftermath in other areas of southern Ontario Saturday afternoon, trying to determine if other regions were hit by tornadoes.3 I" f) Y  h+ f& {: Z& y3 `

$ _! p6 |+ s5 X" y1 S' TAided 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.+ @* P  K" e( ^& {" W/ {) \& ~

6 L* N3 [4 }5 y3 x' X- H, WCoulson 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.. C$ L6 l, F/ l: T1 u0 s

"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.9 K7 j  ]" K8 l' x" [

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. ' t) |8 M6 \5 G* A" U+ m

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. ; q$ q# r7 }6 M2 r6 J& {' {& o

# {# |# h' \9 [4 o8 [. c/ WDuring 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.

"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.
