From there it hits arlington woods really bad and craig henry then the merivale power station. I assume it then passes through colonnade because on Riverside Drive, north of Uplands there is a small woodlot by the river (north of some condos) and you can see a clear path where the tornado just plowed through. Large pines, just cracked at their base in a clear path.
I'm assuming from there it may have skirted the north end of the hunt club area-not sure.
The odds of having not 1 but 2 tornadoes strike on the cusp of the first day of fall is wild.

I know it went through parts of the Hunt Club neighbourhood west of the Airport Parkway (I did not go over there, but someone posted damage on Facebook), then right through South Keys Shopping Centre, Southgate Road, Dunlop Public School, Albion Road, Tapiola Crescent and then eastward. I don't know the exact path beyond Tapiola, but I heard that it continued beyond that point. I know I drove down Conroy Road right after the storm and did not see damage there. It seemed to be touching down sporadically.
