AWCN11 CWTO 111114 Updated weather summary for all of Southern Ontario and the National Capital Region issued by Environment Canada At 7:14 AM EDT Tuesday 11 September 2012. 8th tornado of the season confirmed. At around 10 AM on Saturday, September 8, a damaging storm moved through an area near storms corners in Eastern Ontario. Storms corners is approximately 10 kilometres to the east of Napanee. An Environment Canada employee performed an on-site investigation earlier Monday, viewing damage and talking to eyewitnesses. Upon completion of the investigation the event was deemed to be a low end Fujita scale 2 tornado with peak winds between 180 and 210 kilometres per hour. The tornado occurred in the withers road area to the southwest of storms corners. The damage included an 8 metre trailer weighing approximately 2500 kilograms. The trailer was carried and rolled over 30 metres by the tornado and totally destroyed. A new and well-anchored storage shed was destroyed to its foundations. The roof from this shed was carried approximately 150 metres and fell to the ground almost intact. In an example of quick thinking and appropriate action, a man in the shed at the time the tornado struck immediately took shelter under a heavy workbench and avoided serious injury as a result. Debris from a barn originally at the western end of the damage track was carried over 4 kilometres. Numerous trees in the area were uprooted or severely damaged and a number of large branches were driven into the ground by the force of the tornado. Debris from damaged or destroyed buildings littered surrounding fields. Farm machinery weighing as much as 1000 kilograms was carried as far as 100 metres. In total, the damage path was around 6 kilometres long and about 150 metres wide, at its widest point. This is the 8th tornado of the season in Ontario. Ontario normally has 13 tornadoes each year in a season that runs from late April until early October.

I know what the "Makena Cloud" is, but I am interested in better understanding the phenomenon behind the meteorological conditions that prevail to create this cloud daily, it's scope of impact both north and south of Big Beach/Makena Beach, and how long it lasts daily (develops at X-time and dissipates at Y-time).
