Videos and photos show a funnel cloud touching down in Mont-Laurier Wednesday afternoon around 2:30 p.m.
Some minor damage was reported and firefighters were dispatched to the scene. Road signs at the junction of routes 309 and 117 were blown off or blown over, an old barn was demolished farther north, and a trampoline was tossed by the wind, damaging the roof of a house.
Environment Canada confirmed Thursday that the event was a tornado, rated F0, the lowest on the scale, and said it was not related to a thunderstorm. A tornado is considered F0 on the scale if it boasts winds between 64 km/h and 116 km/h.
