Pair of tornadoes confirmed west of Cornwall

The Morrisburg tornado had an estimated maximum speed of 115 km/h and caused minor damage to a gazebo, a fence and some trees, the group said.

Two weak twisters touched down Wednesday afternoon west of Cornwall, according to a Western University tornado research group.

The two tornadoes hit Morrisburg  and an area southwest of Newington, Ont., the Northern Tornadoes Project (NTP) said in a social media post Saturday.

The Morrisburg tornado had an estimated maximum speed of 115 km/h and caused minor damage to a gazebo, a fence and some trees, the group said.

There's been no evidence yet of any damage in connection with the Newington-area tornado, NTP said. Its estimated wind speed was not announced.

Both tornadoes were classified as EF-0 on the enhanced Fujita scale — the lowest possible rating — although the Newington-area tornado's classification is a preliminary one. No injuries have been reported, NTP said.
