6:49 - calm as fuck.... hear about the warning, walk out to my balcony to check shit out - look over to the NW direction of my balcony (i'm right at 427/qew) and i shit you not i see clouds gathering together, then touch down to the ground, almost looks like it's happening in slow motion - then rain starts flowing, and the wind is blowing it on it's side... i've never seen a storm come like that, that quick - ever.

died down a bit, but it's picking up again - and the lightning/thunder is unreal. lol

here in markham there is non-stop thunder and lightning. when i say non-stop i mean you dont really hear any silence, just a constant rumble. we are hiding in the basement.

I just drove home from the 'bridge. Bolts hitting all around me. Fun stuff.

One has to wonder why people choose to drive 30 kph in this - wouldn't you want to get off the road as soon as possible?

I just got back from my long ride on the 400.

I took video of the tornado in Woodbridge. Now I got to figure out how to get the video off my iphone. edit: Anyone know how to use SSH?

Also a lightning strike occured about 30 yards from me, it hit a powerline pole, struck loud, and sparks flew everywhere. Awesome.

CTV pays, cp24 doesn't (I sold CTV a video years ago after an accident).

Anyone know how to use SSH to transfer the video off my phone?

Ajax went from bright and sunny to insane dark with crazy winds in like 3 mins... the storm only last like ten mins max tho. Im kinda disappointed.

The chick on cp24 makes me laugh, she just said "if you are watching this and your power is out just know that you are not alone and that it will take some time to get your power back up" um if ur power is down then how are u watching tv?

it was dark as fuck out, like hell was around us, THICK ass lightning bolts, 3-car crashes, 4-car crashes, ppl with 4-ways on, ppl pulled over...

6s got jammed hardcore 10km before 403 so decided to head up conc 7e to waterdown and this is where the worst was

every 2 min a telephone pole right beside me would get fucked up, transformer blew right the fuck up, car was hydroplaning like crazy. i was actually scared to shit

Took forever to drive home from Toronto to Oakville after work, but it was so awesome (especially with some nice dark tunes to go with the drive). Thunderstorms ftw!


Posted by Abercrombie on Aug-21-2009 00:34:

OK, here's my clip of the tornado in woodbridge. I used a video app for a 1st generation iPhone, so pardon the frame rate.

It was astonishing seeing it in real life, the swirling, justt wow.

You'll see it up until miway through the clip, second half started dying down, but at least I got most of the tail end.
