The first tornado touched down at around 3:50 pm and was on the ground simultaneously with another twister near Malden Centre. It caused damage to crops and minor damage to the roof of a house, with small debris thrown up to 400 metres. Witness captured photographs of the dual tornadoes; this one a high funnel cloud with a swirl of debris at its base. The final tornado in the area was another F0.
Figure 1 depicts the surface observations at 5:00 pm CDT, which shows a stationary front over Lake Erie. This front promoted convective development in extreme southwestern Ontario, which ultimately led to several tornadoes.
