Pretty damn impressive..
as far as my area is concerned I'm expecting an overnight rumbler at most. I try not to get too amped up just in case ;-)

Out side of Canada but noteworthy, apparently Washington Illinois was just struck by a large tornado in the past hour or two.

here's one link that has some info,

looks like we could have some interesting weather shortly. I hope the wind doesnt kill power though, I have a part in my machine that needs to run overnight, that could complicate things. :/

Heavy rain some gusty winds in Windsor right now. Nothing to serious as of yet.

Rain and storms are gone....the remaining wind is pretty wicked tho.

Anyone have any current max wind gusts... swear we are feeling 100K + here in Windsor/Belle River area.
