Figure 1 depicts the surface observations at 2:00 pm, which shows a low pressure system in extreme eastern Ontario and a cold front extending into southern Ontario. Another low pressure and cold front is also approaching from north-central Ontario. The likely scenario is, after the cold front passage, lake-breeze boundaries originating from Georgian Bay initiated some thunderstorms downstream into southern Ontario. The lake-breeze boundaries and the forcing ahead of the northern cold front likely led to this brief tornado near Lake Simcoe.
