It broke a window in the garage, broke through the wall just beside the window and pierced a hole in the roof of the garage. No injuries Betty Stanley's car was buried under a tree at 608 Outram. Winds likely between 135-175 km/hr blew through Lucknow CONTINUED FROM > PAGE 1 The same team also con- cluded Thursday that an EF -2 tornado, with winds of 180 to 220 km/h touched down in the area of Leba- non, Ont., just east of Lis- towel. It is the third tornado confirmed by Environment Canada from Sunday's storm. A tornado with winds up to 220 kilometres per hour blew through Teviot- dale, Wellington North, Mapleton and Minto, leaving a trail of damage roughly seven kilometres long and 200 metres wide. An EF -1 tornado was confirmed to have touched down in Mars- ville, about 60 kilometres northwest of Brampton. Kimbell said the damage in Lucknow and the torna- does in Lebanon, Teviotdale and Marsville were all from the same system that made its way through southern Ontario late Sunday afternoon. He said heavy damage reported between the 8th and 10th concession south of Kincardine was likely also from the same system. "Almost certainly there would have been damage in other locations along the Lake- shore and elsewhere, most likely caused by a downburst in most cases," Kimbell said. Kate MacDougall, who has a cottage on Lake Huron south of Kincardine, said at least 10 mature trees were dropped on her property, while a large tree fell on her neighbour's cottage. There were also cars damaged by falling trees in the area. "It was a mess really," MacDougall said. "It really seems to have ripped a path through here." McDougall said her family has had a cottage in the area since the 1970s and they have always enjoyed watch- ing storms as they approach over the lake, but Sunday's storm was different. MacDougall said the lake went still and then all of a sudden everything went white when the storm hit. "It is always fun to watch them come across and you always assume you are safe," said MacDougall. "This one as it got closer you could tell there was something differ- ent about it. It was very frightening." MacDougall said immedi- ately after the storm there was a seiche, where the lake water retreated 50 to 100 feet and all the rocks that are normally under the water were visible, before the water came back in quickly.

"Every time you looked at the lake it would be different. it would either be high or really low," MacDougall said. "I just find that fascinating."
