Re: August 21
It'll depend on clearing. I'm just hoping for any storm at all. Ideally, we'll see several rounds tonight/tomorrow morning and then some clearing late morning with a strong line forming in the...

Re: Friday, August 4th Storm Potential
No surprise that Eastern Ontario has the best shot for severe weather. It's been like that for the last few years from what I've observed.
These recent days have been nice for the slow moving pop...

Re: July 12th - thought?
I'm not too confident in today. US SPC shifted the risk south this morning and it's already cloudy out. Also, there's a large area of rain moving into Michigan that I can only imagine will kill any...

Re: May 30th storms
Kitchener's bubble is working overtime today. All the storms that I see moving in are weakening. Still a lot of lightning and rain in them though.
In all seriousness though, these are very...

Conditions look pretty favourable from the ground. Lots of low level wind, lots of sun, lots of humidity. The clouds are moving from the west but the wind is from the southwest, so looks like we have...

Holy rain! Just about 50mm of rain throughout Kitchener in about 30-45 minutes starting around 4pm. I've never seen the ground outside my window literally flood. Usually it can handle downpours, even...

Re: Aug 13th 2016
The Kitchener storm was pretty good. Lasted a LONG time with some gusty winds and almost non stop heavy rain. So far I've only found one small tree branch, so damage is minimal.

Re: Possible Tornado near London
