This is what Cambridge-Narrows looked like just one hour and fifteen minutes before the tornado touched down. It was a gorgeous evening and I was enjoying a paddle around the lake on my stand-up paddleboard.
I returned home about a half hour before the tornado struck as I could see some dark clouds to the west, though there was no real indication of what was to come.
This image is a good reminder that weather can sneak up on you and catch you by surprise. In general it's not of any great concern because we're quite mobile most of the time, but as a windsurfer it's good to watch the weather. When you're on the water you're at the mercy of the weather gods, and they're a miserable bunch of overlords.
