Description
According to EC files, there was some discrepancy over the rating and exact location and path tornado took. Damage occurred in Marmion, Desboro, and Williams Lake. Given F2 rating, however F3 rating could have applied due to the 2 cottages (2-storey with brick construction) being blown away and left unrecognizable. (See EC file) Coincidentally, Williams Lake was hit only 16 months earlier by an strong F3 tornado.
