Quite an active afternoon/evening. Driving home from Toronto I watched the supercell near lake simcoe back build and overshoot the anvil. that storm still showing signs of rotation approaching peterborough. The storm heading towards Calabogie has some strong rotation and is showing a nice comma shape.

It's alittle long in the building up to it, but it does create a nice funnel, hard to tell if it touched ground or not.
