No damage was caused as this EF0 tornado tracked between Listowel and the Conestoga Lake Conservation Area. It was observed and caught on camera by Dave Patrick and a few other CANWARN spotters, as it touched down in the early evening. It formed at the leading edge of a squall line, and had a smokey and loose circular appearance without a distinguishable funnel cloud. Although it was on the ground for 8 km, no appreciable damage was caused.
Figure 1 depicts the surface observations at 8:00 pm EDT, which shows a cold front moving across Lake Huron and southwestern Ontario. This front was the focus for intense thunderstorms in the evening hours of May 13th, which ultimately led to this tornado.
