Environment Canada damage survey teams will be checking to see if three possible tornadoes touched down in Ontario Wednesday.
Severe thunderstorms ripped across central Ontario late Wednesday afternoon and left more than a dozen communities under tornado watch Wednesday evening.
The thunderstorms passed through Arthur, Ont., to Orillia, Ont., to Minden, Ont. The communities are about 155 kilometres apart.
