On Sunday, a powerful severe weather moved through the Glencoe area, prompting alerts across southwestern Ontario. Residents reported sudden damage as the storm passed, and local media began tracking its development.
Environment Canada later upgraded the storm that formed in Glencoe to an EF1, citing measured winds of 90 km/h and episodes of large hail as the cell intensified into a supercell; CKNX News Today formally confirmed the supercell tornado, noting its brief but violent path through the community this afternoon.
