Blow off tops of the London Woodstock cells passed over Niagara around 8:30pm but were dry with some slight mammatus and layering. The profile of the Barrie/Innisfil storms looks impressive and equally long trailing blow off tops. Lightning visible in those billowing cumulus.

Impressive cell marching down 26 from Collingwood...perhaps Barrie in an hour?

The tornado south of Sudbury creeped into French River and a tornado warning was issued for West Nipissing - French River. It was south of me but we got hit with a line of severe thunderstorms.
