Storm chaser films tornado as it narrowly misses train, churns in field near Ayr


The tornado was on the ground for a half kilometre and had a width of 20 metres. It was filmed by CANWARN spotter Dave Patrick as it narrowly missed a passing train. Although it did not produce any damage, the tornado left swirling patterns through the crops and fields over which it passed.

This was one of four tornadoes to touch down during a small tornado outbreak in Southern Ontario. The others were an F0 at Campbellville, an F1 near Highland Grove, and an F1 near Fenlon Falls.
