As for the news that affects Canada and around the world, he participated in the urgent news alerts that were delivered directly when it occurs.
The chief global meteorologist Anthony Farnell explained the difference between the two air events.
He said: “The landing is the wind that comes from a thunderstorm and comes out when it reaches the ground while a hurricane is close to the roof and then rises to the storm.” “The type of damage to the two events varies, but in this case the wind speeds are similar.
“The hurricane damage is often narrow and chaotic (in several directions). Lower wind damage can be more prevalent but mostly in the same direction.”
While this is the first confirmed hurricane of the year in Ontario, there were five others across the country in 2025 until now, including one in Vanderhoff, British Columbia, on Wednesday.
There were 129 Tornados all over Canada in 2025, according to NTP, with 60 of those that occur in Ontario.
