Episode Details

A violent storm tore through Winnipeg’s south end Monday night, leaving behind a trail of destruction so severe experts suspect a tornado. One home on Tolcross Gate was obliterated, roof and garage gone — but thankfully, no one was home. Across Whyte Ridge, roofs were shredded, trees uprooted, and streets blocked by fallen limbs. Professor John Hanesiak, who studies such events, confirmed a telltale linear damage path — a classic tornado signature — and noted his team had just responded to similar damage in Rossburn. While Environment Canada logged heavy rain, wind speeds remain unconfirmed, but eyewitnesses described winds that were terrifyingly powerful. As extreme weather becomes more common, the call is growing louder for governments to invest more in disaster preparedness — nature’s fury demands serious readiness.
