No offense, this tornado hit a little more than "a barn" near pipestone... if you would like pictures let me know, I would be more than happy to share my experience with you! =)

This tornado in particular did only hit a farmers barn in the region. It has been confirmed by Environment Canada. No question on that.

Buuuuttt.....

This same supercellular thunderstorm did drop more than one tornado, so it was very likely one of those tornadoes.

Also, other supercells in the region did have tornadic potential also. I know this as I was tracking the supercells throughout their entire life on Radar out of Minot, ND.

As for pictures, I would love to see them :D

And that is the same environment Canada that get the weather wrong on a daily basis,,right. (time) 2:44,,Cromer MB,,,thats where the tornado touched down (time) 3:06 this is the tornado,,,going through the pipestone valley,,just north of Reston MB going through one of my neighbours yards ,,,where it took a barn,,shed and cattle shed,,,cracked all the walls in their house,,,and then it headed for my cousins farm,,,where it destroyed a mile of creek bush and trees in their yard.

(time) 4:00 this is where it took down the H-line for hydro,,,snapping poles off that were almost 3 feet thick. (time) 7:12,,,right about here it was just about to a farm site where the family lost everything except for their mobile home. How do I know this? Because I live here. So don't be going around telling people that YOU know what happened because you were watching a monitor. You weren't here!!!

I base the fact that this tornado did little damage in comparison to what it could have on damage reports. The one in particular I still disagree with your report of the damage there. EVEN SO, I in no way whatsoever doubt what you're saying about the damage. I've heard of damage reports similar to what you're describing from different tornadoes that occurred with the same supercellular cluster of storms that night. After all, there were at least six reported tornadoes in that region that day.

..and as result, they are over worked employees that get very little funding. Give EC some respect for what they do! Our one winnipeg office of employees has to cover an area as large as tornado alley (the whole prairies).

As for your anger, that wasn't necessary. Is is not possible to have a discussion rather than an argument?

I don't know if my other comments posted, as Yt his being a pain in the arse today. If they didn't let me know and I'll post em again :)

As for dissing EC, seriously, don't do that. I'm assuming you know not very much about forecasting and meteorology, and have no idea how hard it is for our meteorologists.

Yes, I realize that their accuracy is not 100%, but that is normal. Weather is unpredictable-let's see you do any better. Secondly, their job gets hard and hard all the time. Why? This is because of our government. They provide little funding to improve our forecasts, etc. , and don't higher anybody new when workers retire..
