The Northern Tornadoes Project confirms one tornado caused damage in Fort Erie.
Officials in Fort Erie are assessing the damage from one and possibly two tornados that touched down on Monday afternoon.
The damage is extensive with reports of damaged roofs, windows, buildings and trees knocked down. The RONA store in Fort Erie had its roof lifted off and landed in a neighbouring backyard.
There are no reports of injuries.
Canadian Niagara Power said on Monday evening that power had been restored in Fort Erie and Port Colborne, after multiple outages had been reported across both towns “due to the tornado like conditions experienced earlier.”
