TORNADO WARNING FOR TORONTO!!! SUPER RARE AND ON TV (EAS #42)

I have never had a tornado warning for my area on my radio or TV before... Absolutely nuts! Taken On June 17, 2017

[@spcbuffalo-wh4vt]

Wow! Toronto! i am in buffalo and i got nothing!

[@ShockValue500]

Interesting how they play the attention tone before the SAME headers

[@whatisthisnewfeaturehandle]

@Beazilla finally, we have iNotify which is... a bit better.

[@SCJYT]

I was not about to get a photo, but I saw a really fast rotating wall cloud and a funnel cloud which actually looked like it was going to touchdown but faded away by the time I could get my phone unplugged from inside the house...

[@whatisthisnewfeaturehandle]

Wow

[@DetroitSevereWX]

That's intense! Great video.

[@SCJYT]

I was truly scared at that moment. Season 2 Of The Canadian Weather Radio Kid Will Be Out Soon. Many New Things.

[@xboxgamer196]

there is one time where we were in a tornado warning and when we were going out to eat after a baseball game we had to stand the restaurant

[@SCJYT]

xbox Gamer some scary stuff eh

[@xboxgamer196]

I actually hit a few miles west of us right by a park

[@overly3154]

Me and my parents were at my uncles house when we got it but luckily it wasn’t even formed much

[@Alexander-lg4uw]

I live right next to Toronto. My town was in a tornado warning but i was not thier

[@SPCmuncie]

thier? Do you mean there?

[@cindybubbles]

I got that warning, too. Good thing for my family that it never came to pass.

[@SCJYT]

there was damage from the tornadic storm but ef-0 to just straight line wind damage in a field so yeah. I am thankful as well.

[@en00001]

I live in Newmarket and I faintly remember the severe thunderstorm warning but not the tornado one. Huh

[@Tracks777]

Excellent video. Keep it up!

[@SPCcranford1056]

Wow!

[@SCJYT]

SPCcranford1056 Thanks just how we Canadians do it... it's a lot quieter lol

[@Metrobolt49]

I make weather radio videos to

[@spccanadanovascotiahalifax93]

NOVA SCOITA dosent get hit by tornados thank God I love live in NOVA scoita

[@Tracks777]

I like! Keep it up!

[@noahasbury5071]

Yeah I was on my phone when I got the notification from my weather app it was quite thrilling cause I'm very into meteorology

[@SCJYT]

as you could hear, I am a weather nut xD

[@Foxxx-01]

Were you from within Toronto or outside the GTA? it only affected the London area.... but anyway your reaction is funny.

[@SCJYT]

Meh?! I am from North York in the city limits of toronto and there was a tornado warning for the city that day... I was so freaked out because that hasn't happened since the Vaughn Tornado which I watched break up houses which then got me into weather somehow... Toronto has been in a tornado warning twice in my 17 years of life.

[@Metrobolt49]

I love foxes :D

[@spcbuffalo-wh4vt]

I got a tornado warning for my county (aka erie)! It was an EF-2!

[@Kn270]

Did u survive

[@OortCloud]

I was Driving to Toronto from the USA and we saw the tornadoes, it wasnt so bad but yeah lol

[@xylazi]

I thought Canada had their own EAS Tones? 0:59

[@SCJYT]

A Doggo the EAS tones are to transfer info. Easier to use the same tones.

[@whatisthisnewfeaturehandle]

@Beazilla I'm pretty sure it's also used in Bermuda.

[@isaacdp647]

omg i live in the same town and i did get a tornado warning but it wasnt from the NWS it was only from google

[@Metrobolt49]

Why Did It Do The USA Emergency Alert System Sound

[@SCJYT]

its the tone that sets off the radios. the tones contains data that the radio can read and then displays the corresponding alert.

[@WildDiamond07]

The SAME headers are also used in Canada so that they can activate, otherwise there'd be a goddamn ton of people dead from tornadoes lmao

[@ECOWXR]

What tv channel were you on

[@SCJYT]

I believe it was the local news cp24

[@ECOWXR]

@@SCJYT ok

[@DaveDesjardins]

Hi, can you tell me where can i buy a midland wr120 in canada? Beacause I don't want to buy it from the usa and having to pay import and duties fee on it.

[@SCJYT]

I got mine from a camp utility store a few years back... Its a shame that more stores dont sell them. Maybe Walmart?

[@FATTYBONGRIPS]

Shoppers if ur in Alberta or new brunswick

[@GFLProductionsGuy27]

Jesus my area was in this

[@EASboy316]

My god

[@Mysterious_Ace]

Get them all the time in Middlesex county.

[@SCJYT]

Jay Myers well think about the fact that 2020 has had more then double the usual amount of tornadoes in ontario and also environment canada doesnt ever really issue them for toronto.

[@Mysterious_Ace]

@@SCJYT I know.

[@briansaptel4107]

Hope y'all were all ok

[@SCJYT]

yup... in the other video, you can see that I said "there might be a tornado on the ground" and then minutes later this alert was sent out

[@emeraldtavulgtyt1220]

I got in 7 years, I got nothing

[@g0Ken733]

I LIVE IN TORONTO

[@southwestontario]

Not rare. Toronto gets tornado warnings every Summer, along with the rest of Southern Ontario

[@SCJYT]

Not even close to true... the last time the city of Toronto was under a tornado warning was 8 years ago. It's not a thing that happens every summer.

[@SCJYT]

The weather radio covers a large distance as well (up to ~150 km) so while other areas in S Ontario get these warnings all the time, The actual city never is included in such warnings

[@WildDiamond07]

Wow!

[@JoseChavez-se4hz]

Wow!

[@JoseChavez-se4hz]

Is cool👍👍👍
