| It was just about this time that a tornado touched downed from the supercell just inland from the north shore of Lake Erie along the Niagara Peninsula of Ontario. The SRV image on the right shows the telltale inbound-outbound couplet that signals rotation. Indeed, the Tornadic Vortex Signature (TVS) algorithm placed a pair of TVS' (a-b, red and white triangles) at that location as seen in the reflectivity image on the left. |

| Later on in the evening as the cell crossed into Wyoming county it dropped another tornado. Once again, you can see an inbound-outbound couplet on the SRV miage on the right, though probably not as clear cut as the previous image. Not too surprisingly, the TVS algorithm once again shows a TVS (a- red triangle) as indicated on the reflectivity image on the left. |
