2022 Storm Derecho
May 21, 2022 Saturday
Storm Derecho hit Ottawa City Ontario. We were affected with damages.
We just moved to the farm house on May 1, so we have not unpack yet. It was a bit of chaos, and we navigate it through. Our roof was partially off, the barn was totalled - totally destroyed and lots of trees fall. We did not get our power back until June 30th. We camped out and thank goodness it was summer.
The strongest derecho storm in Canada this century occurred on May 21, 2022. The storm hit Southern Ontario and Quebec, causing widespread damage along a path that extended for 620 miles. The winds peaked at 190 km/h in Ottawa, which is one of the most impactful thunderstorms in Canadian history 12. The storm caused unprecedented levels of destruction and loss, killing at least 10 people 1.
