Winnipeg Storm Leaves Destruction in Wake | Winnipeg News
Description
Winnipeg took a brutal hit Monday night as a powerful storm tore through the southwest, sending roofs flying, fences crashing, and trees ripping from the ground—so violently, one home suffered a partial collapse. While Environment Canada leans toward straight-line winds (not tornadoes) with gusts likely exceeding 90 km/h, the airport’s lower readings hint at a complex system. Residents are stunned, one calling it like a southern news scene in their own backyard. Homeowners were out of town when the damage struck, making the news over the phone even more gut-wrenching. This isn’t isolated—just Sunday, a confirmed tornado hit south of Rossburn, and Monday’s downpours flooded Brandon. More rain’s on the way for western Manitoba, with up to 50 mm expected. It’s a stark reminder: nature’s fury knows no bounds, and meteorologists are still piecing together the full story from radar data.
