I believe that tornado warning for Windsor might have been Environment Canada’s first-ever ‘Red Warning’. Which, while interesting, is something that IMHO breaks the logic of the new system ie. every tornado warning is a Red Warning, no matter the expected impact or confidence.

NWS has issued a Tornado Warning that extends to the Detroit-Windsor area. There may be a tornado embedded in this approaching line of storms (bright yellow area in Doppler velocities in the bottom frame below). Prepare to take shelter if in the area. #ONstorm

Canada's Jeremy Hansen is on his way to the Moon. Amazing.

He's the only son of two auto workers from southwestern Ontario. Not far from Londontario (read the gift article below).

I hope his story inspires countless others.

Safe travels, Jeremy!

Nearly continuous lightning and thunder with this new cell rapidly developing NW of Londontario. Might be the most intense in southern Ontario of the last 12 hours if this keeps up. #LdnOnt #ONstorm

At the Juno Awards in The Hammer tonight! Once again, I’m not nominated ;-) But going to be some serious star power here, including even the Prime Minister. And if the rumours I’ve been hearing are true, it’s gonna really be a night to remember!!

An unusually active and destructive start to the tornado season in the northern U.S. has many Canadians wondering what's in store north of the border.

Wealthsimple now has approval to offer investments betting on the weather and other events Fintech is second entity to receive this kind of approval by the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization in the country.

Really? Betting on the weather in Canada??

Any Canadian weather forecaster will tell you, "Good luck with that." Not joking ;-)

Radar showing lightning approaching London, ON

Radar showing lightning approaching London, ON

Lightning & thunder with a 0C temp in #Londontario as a warm front slides by. We'll only briefly fall on the warm side of the front this morning before the cold front arrives. All the really warm temps are stuck along the south shore of cold Lake Erie. Typical for this time of year. #LdnOnt

I see in the latest ECCC Departmental Plan they have implemented a new measure of success for weather warnings - did the receiver take any action? With a target of at least 40%. But it doesn't specify what type of action. What if I heard the warning and my action was going outside to investigate?

So, yes - we do have something valuable here in Canada with our approach to health care. Don't let greedy actors (and captured premiers) ruin it for all of us. We need to make our public health care system better, not let private health care expand to fill cracks. If you haven't, please read below.

Climate stripes but for the relative Nino 3.4 seasonal index. Each column is a tropical year Jun–May and each row is a 3-month season. Reds for El Niño and blues for La Niña. Question marks for the coming seasons. There's been some rounding.

A fake AI-generated tornado report

A fake AI-generated tornado report

The very first Canadian tornado report of 2026 turns out to be an AI fake. Details here: www.facebook.com/story.php?st...

It should be illegal to post fake tornado images/video. Like making a false 911 report - known as 'public mischief' in Canada, up to 5 years in jail.

Going to be a long year...

This song and video together are truly a work of art. And she's from T.O. and calls herself 'The Weather Station', so there's that too :-) Enjoy!

From Sweden's V-Dem Institute and their 2026 Democracy Report, a chart showing top 30% of democracies on the planet. Congrats to Denmark! Canada needs some improvement. But since 2015, the US under the orange tyrant has declined from Top 10% to close to the bottom of the 20-30% list. And dropping...
