Athens: Gregoire

Etienne Gregoire Dept: One hit the area of Athens near Brockville and another touched down around Summerstown, east of Cornwall, according to CBC. Gregoire said he estimated the tornado touched down at about 140 km/h and environment Canada has confirmed that two tornadoes touched down in eastern Ontario during three wild storms that moved through the region on Tuesday. Environment Canada meteorologist Etienne Gregoire said the tornado at Athens was the stronger of the two, and was likely an F1 tornado the second-weakest level on the Fujita Scale, which rates the storms from F0 to F5.
