Hi, living in province of Québec here ! I wasn't expecting to see this event reported on WION's news. I'm surprised to learn that 4 people perish due to this storm. The heavy rainfall and wind were very quick but very intense, many trees fell on the streets all around the city.

Got the weather alert on my phone about a minute after it already hit my house. The weather forecasters really missed this one. Weather Canada had a 30% chance of scattered showers for its prediction. Instead we got a giant wave of hurricane force wind and some grape sized hail. We lost a section of fence. The neighbour had a tree fall in his yard. The guy down the street lost a bunch of chickens. Amazingly our power stayed on. Pretty much everywhere else in town lost power all day.

It's time for mankind to realize that the energy we send to nature, nature can return the favor ten times more.

Where I am in Ottawa we had a lot of big trees broken in 2 or uprooted. Quite a lof on cars and houses. A lot of huge trees uprooted. Must have been a tornado in one of the sections cause you could see the line of destruction. But I must say a lot were very lucky because the trees fell away from the houses mostly...not sure why it did that

What is that, a drunk Tornado ? 0:16 Looks like a tornado rolling around sideways with cloud and funnel both on the ground.

Not one of us has promised to be alive tomorrow.
The God Who created us is holy. We have all sinned against him following the lust of our flesh. The penalty for sin is death. The good news is that Jesus Christ died on the cross so that all who believe on him as their savior will be forgiven of their sins and have eternal life. He is the Lamb God provided for us. He wants us to turn away from sin and be born again. JESUS'S kingdom is coming and only those who accept him and are born again will be a part of it

Excuse me Sir/Madam
Are you saved?
If you died tonight are you going to heaven?
Jesus Jesus loves you
